This could mean that you have just been pulled to the surface, so just get on the boat and breathe the O2, it's easier.
Surely you are ready (as you have just sent up a yellow blob) and are poised with your finger on the ratchet?

PS - My tank has a buoy attached. It is O2 on 9m of rope in case it gets tangled. I would ask the skipper to drop it as close as possible to my DSMB, and try and get it tangled. If my DSMB and blob end up 10s of metres apart then try again.
