I wonder if you have ever tried to send up a liftbag?

 I dont think so. When the liftbag leaves bottom and starts surfacing the
speed will so high that the only possibility you have got, is to let=
 go!!!!!!

We do it another way. Just send the liftbag to the surface with your
souveniers, and let the surface crew take care of the liftbag. I have tried
the reels too, and know that it is being taught by some people, but if you
have got a boat on the surface you do not need the reel. Exept for making
trouble for yourself.

Happy diving
