J.

Considering the scene yesterday, it's the most current here. We went on this wreck and the guys before us going in are loaded down with 2 deco stage bottles and their doubles but full face masks everywhere. They each carried 2 to 3 ffms per person. It was hilarious. Sliding into the water one would start free flowing, so they'd get that one fixed, then the other would start. Those things have to create drag too, and because they didn't tie them off, they were "draggin" them everywhere. It was also rather sad to see that the normal diving mask was simply clipped off creating more drag. On the exchange side one guy said he switched masks and it took him 8 !!!! minutes before he was calmed down. scotter -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@terra.net'.
