I was wondering if the boats would let use= have the full use of our Nitrox NDL (using doubles; either 72's or 80s). The air = divers can do their surface interval while we do our dive and then go to Molasses when = we are done as they usually do. Our gear almost takes less room than the typical OW = diver since out tanks are assembled, lights attached and we don't have to switch = between dives. No one would be put out unless boats are waiting for the three slots. My = groups (4 of use) all have Adv Nitrox (with experience on O2 and decompression), cave,= and rescue or higher (I'm Assist. Instructor). It may be longer than air dives, but = we still have full use of Nitrox capabilities. I'll keep your references with me = in case that does not work out.
