Subject: Drysuit buoyancy question
I'm about to do my first dive in my brand-new CF 200 drysuit. Prior to 
this, I was using a TLS 350 (which is now going into semi-retirement for 
non-wreck use only). Other than the change in drysuit, my undergarment and 
all my other gear will be the same as always. My question is, is the CF 200 
going to be more buoyant than the TLS, requiring me to carry extra weight, 
and if so, how much? (It may be of interest to note that while the TLS was 
way too big on me, the CF 200 is custom made, so should require less gas to 
inflate to comfort level.)

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Off topic, I might recommend you have a look at 
www.nwdesigns.com/rebreathers/cispunar/, which was perhaps more relevant 
yesterday.
