Yes, it was a scary moment for many. Our Instructors (from Ocean Tours) mentioned to me the next day that the gentleman was going to recover fully, and was released from one of the chambers a few days later and went home.

I want to make clear that this did not happen with any Ocean Tours clients from El Cozumeleño, but our Instructors were there, and lended a hand.

Yep, this trip's been 16 months in the making...it's finally time...wheels up in about 36 hours...I'll be able to mark off one of my dream destinations...now if I can just survive the 36+ hour crossing

I don't have any wide angle lenses or any really fancy toys compared to the rest in my group...some of the best UW photogs around...but I'll do my best

I'm still pinching myself that I'm actually going...pray for mantas and Mr. Big...I've never seen either one!!

OMG...I have to pack!!!!!!!!

Antonio, that's great news...thanks for chiming in and kudos to the Ocean Tours instructors!

What was the guy's problem, Antonio?

(I know this did not happen with any Ocean Tours clients from El Cozumeleño)

A shore dive gone wrong?
Training dive?
Snorkle trip?

Antonio, thanks for the info. It's good to hear that he was ok, just wish we had more specifics. But just knowing he was alright makes our group feel much better.
