I've been Tango'd
So I found Out what its like to be Tango'd this morning,

Went to the SKY out of breakwater on a "busmans Holiday" seeing as Eclipse wont be running till next weekend. Low Viz but interesting dive....

Just sitting at 3m completing a little deco when TANGO decides to drive staight over the SMB! were not talking about a drift across we are talking about driving over under power where I could have reached up and touched the damm prop.

Let go of the reel etc and dropped away from the hull a few meters till he FCUKED off then came up. No harm done but IMHO the blokes ................. and needs ........................

Glad you are OK + I'm sure you told him off + did he have ANY excuse.

I got reversed over once by a "temp skipper" when being picked up. It was a twin hull and I was right in the middle so no real danger but NOT a nice experience.

To dive or not to dive - that's not even an option.

Tango is a big hardboat but I get the drift

On of the guys he very nearly ran over on the surface was a diving journalist so that might do the trick
