From what I had read about their "world record" dives I would assume this was the case. Jill was talking about her 11 hour dives with an additional 10 hours of decompression. Since George's real record dive was 5 hours with 8.5 hours decompression then it sounds like this would be the case. Even though they were doing habitat deco, it sounds like this is nowhere near sufficient deco. The actual times could be off, but those numbers are what I saw in print.

"There was great physical stain on the divers, with long in water times and hours of decompression. When you read about these dives you often don't realise this and it was interesting that Jill said she often felt quite sick after long dives and decompressions." while tempting to joke about the mispelling in the first sentence( did Depends fail?), the second sentence is worrisome. Does not "illness"indicate low-grade DCS? Does this not indicate faulty decompression technique? peteV saintpetersburgFL -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
