That happened to Dawn and I the year before that happened. This was before the SMB is mandatory rules came into force. Thankfully we were the only buddy pair on the boat with DSMBs. When we were taken from the reef we kept depth and launched one of the blobs. The Zodiac driver saw the blob go and followed us. After surfacing all I could see was a container ship, then Mohammed saying to get on board, we did and were taken back for a nice breakfast.
