I slightly misread Gary's question but don't think there's anything to disagree about.... The BDSG discussed the issue in the aftermath of an incident in the North East.....I don't think the discussion had a "distance from shore" perspective but was more on the generics of "crew on a dive boat" and whether there should be a blanket two people in all circumstances.
