These were dives that put the divers in hazards by the use of techy gear. A simple rig would have been "Doing it Right", and been much safer. These are situations were people are so over geared that I might need a HELMET, to protect myself from them in the water ;-). -Charles > -Charles The guy may have been practicing. You gotta learn somewhere. If they got blown out and limited to inshore wrecks they may have been planning a deeper penetration dive and ended up all dressed up with nowhere to go. I have buddies who practice their cave diving skills on inshore wrecks that you couldn't get trapped in if you tried. They can still practice line laying and working together as buddies, etc. and it's more interesting than a quarry.
