Agreed - it was just an example of why 10m poses fewer issues than 30m IMHO.


Oops, forgot narcosis level - that's another one.

How do you know? do they wear a badge? Forgive me bt i have had divers tell me they are up for the dive and they look the part but in truth they are not up for it at all.


I signal my buddy, show them the opening and ask for an OK. If i get one we carry on inside the wreck of not we dont. I have already asked him on the boat and he said, sure no problem. Unfortunatly he was not telling the truth.

If my buddy said no penitration up on the boat, fine we dont go inside.

Thats a no brainer and totaly misses the point of the crap buddy discussion.

great report
very interesting
makes you ponder the idea of total solitude
and lets face it even with a buddy diving is a solitary sport they may be right with you adding to your safety factor and you to theres (or hindering it as they case maybe) but your alone with your thoughts and experiences till you suface
you've given me something to think about !

cheers rob
