They seemed quite knowledgeable in the DIR configuration, but I did know that they had not used doubles in open water. I did not know that they had V-weights and lights. They did not come to me for instruction, they just wanted help assembling their gear. I took them out because if I did not they would have found someone else who would have. I figured that Our crew could keep them from getting into too much trouble. I took them on an easy dive on a day with almost perfect weather. Good diving, Cpt.
