Howdy!! I'm a little twig of a guy, weigh 105 pounds soaking wet. I got my open water cert in [checks card] 2010... Wow... And I haven't been in the water since about 2011. I did several dives after the certification (mostly boat dives in the Atlantic), but then high school and college punched me in the face. Earlier this year I decided I wanted to get back in the water and so took a refresher course, but a family emergency happened and I was unable to go diving.
I finally scheduled a charter dive in a week in Pensacola (assuming weather permits), but I'm panicking trying to decide if I have everything ready. My reg was serviced before the refresher course, the BCD was repaired just after, I have a 7mm farmer john wetsuit, mask-fins-snorkel-dive watch all accounted for.
Looking for anything I've missed, any tips, any NEVER-DO-THIS nuggets of information.
Thank you!!
