Ted, does this mean you will turn into a huge fat bearded slob with a pizza-stained Doria shirt and be participating in a Star Wars Bar Scene on the Seeker? I wish the "Doria" would hurry up and disintegrate so the strokes could all just lie about it instead of dying about it. Here is what I would do for deco. I am not doing anything different because of the cold - you took care of that by keeping the bottom time reasonable. I am assuming that anyone who dives in the 40's uses C-4 , a proper WKPP type hood and gloves , and argon. < 23 bottom time count all time as if at 240 your gas or anything close to that deck to 150 - 2 min 140-80 5 min 70 - 3 60 - 3 50 - 3 40 - 5 30 - 8 20 - 15 5 minutes going to the surface from 20 Same for the next dive This schedule will work up to about 25 minutes at the bottom. On the last two days of diving, switch to the 50% at 60' instead of 70' and do your oxygen at 18 feet or above, maybe splitting it into 18,15,12,9 or something like that. Your risk in this is exposure and depletion of brain chemistry. Don't party with the mutants and take some vitamin E each day. If you go on the Seeker, take some pictures so we can all have a good laugh. -----Original Message----- From: Ted Green [mailto:scuba@md*.co*] Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2002 8:48 AM To: trey@ne*.co*; techdiver@aquanaut.com Subject: Andrea Doria Deco Dive George, Since you are offering deco profiles, let's assume your going to the Andrea Doria. The top of the wreck where the mooring will be is 175' and the sand is 240'. Most of your dive will be between 220' and 240'. You want to be on the mooring line at 175' with a run time of 25 minutes. Assume a bottom mix of 16/50 or chose your own, 2 deco mixes, 40 degree bottom temperature, and 55 degrees from 50' to the surface. What would your profile look like? You plan to repet 5 hours later with a 20 minute bottom time. How much does the profile change? Can you do this 2 days in a row (4 dives)?
