There are also some questions concerning DIR boating and
DIR dive organisation for deep dives  i wanted to ask?

a) What are the variables  that define if the deco stages will be
carried by the divers or stay on the line at an ocean dive ?
( i personally feel quite uncomfortable not to have at least the O2 on
me ).

b) Should a backup set of deco tanks be left on board and fetched by the

support divers if ended or secured on the line at the appropriate depth
just in case ?

c) Does a support diver have any responsibilities other than monitor the
dive plan ,
   watch gas switching , and communicate with surface ? Is it a good
idea to have
   underwater communication device between support diver and surface ?

d) Is a full face availability on 6m a must on realy deep dives ?

e) In case the team is unintentionally drifting is there usually a
support diver
    on chase boat  that will quickly qear up and jump into the water to
assist ?
