Subject: Re: ABC on Diving the San Diego
Maybe she should have used Tony's rig.  But then again if she was on the 
same side of the boat with that rig the Wahoo might have capsized!!!

Who on this list could NOT have done 106' for 20 on an AL80 and not gotten 
back on the boat with AT LEAST 1000psi???  Anyone who raised there hand 
needs to go back to rec.scuba until they can get their RMV down to a 
respectable level.
