George Wentland, I have deco'ed in the ocean many times in big swell on my boat's deco system or a lift bag. The swells here in CA get pretty big. I have yet to see a significant increase or decrease in depth due to a passing swell. Even if hypothetically a passing wave increased your PO2 and if you were breathing at the instant the wave passed overhead the momentary increase in PO2 is so slight that it won't even effect you. I also checked my Maestro Pro Nitrox computer log for my last 50 dives and not one deco shows an increase in PO2 due to passing swells. 100% O2 is the way to go.
