Subject: Re: single/dual bag BCs
Glenn,
Generally, one bladder is accepteted by a slim majority of dry suit, deep
wreck divers (that I know) as sufficient.  Some divers do feel the need for
the dual bladder and dive accordingly. One consideration might be suit
material (neoprene, crushed neoprene, bag suit), relative to buoyancy when
the suit is flooded.   As it is with much in wreck diving, it is pretty
subjective and personal preference is probably the deciding factor.
