Jt; Based on the entire CG report about 75 pages long my question to you is; How did Murley die, The CG report stated he drown at the surface, what has a waiver have to do with the situation, Murley can't waive someone else negligence.only his own. When someone in trouble at the surface screaming and thrashing with two people assisting him, how and why did he drown? One of the deck people watching, told the rescuer "his head is underwater" ????????????? What has a wavier to do with this situtation? ps: the captain and crew of any dive boat has the responsability and right to stop any diver from entering the water for any reason they see fit, from improper attutidude to you dont belong here and all the other reason in between, and you dont get any money refunded. captain steve bielenda In a message dated 2/8/2002 4:45:22 PM Eastern Standard Time, Bakalite@ba*.co* writes: > Subj:Re: Diver Responsibility > Date:2/8/2002 4:45:22 PM Eastern Standard Time > From:<A HREF="mailto:Bakalite@ba*.co*">Bakalite@bakalite.com</A> > To:<A HREF="mailto:vbtech@ci*.co*">vbtech@cisatlantic.com</A>, <A HREF="mailto:FLTechDiver@mikey.net">FLTechDiver@mikey.net</A>, <A HREF="mailto:EANX@ao*.co*">EANX@aol.com</A> > CC:<A HREF="mailto:techdiver@aquanaut.com">techdiver@aquanaut.com</A> > Sent from the Internet > > > > John, I don't think you are being naive.
