The Marsh maybe a no-brainer to someone with some expereince, but not to new divers who haven't been past 50' yet. The Marsh is deep enough for some narcossis to set in at the bottom, and buddy up two new divers who have never expereinced being narced can be a deadly combo. As George would say, bloody strokers. Learn to keep your cool when the sh*t hits the fan, and deal with the problem at depth. Blowing up to the surface should be your last option to consider. Anyways, just an opinion. And the facts are just rumours at this point. Al ALongtin@ao*.co*
