Pretty scary configuration in my opinion, however I'm sure wood works quite
well with a big beautiful and fresh bouquet of full aluminums at the start of a
dive. But once the tanks are breathed down and you don't need the extra
buoyancy?... Unless itÂ’s a vertical cave there's going to be a lot of left
over wood in the cave.:-( In my opinion only a stroke would liter a cave.
