Hello,
So I am reconciling my dive log from my OW cert dive last week and getting my log book in good order for the future. We did our dives by the tables and I wore my computer as I am still learning its particulars. I logged all my dives according to the max depth and bottom time (not counting ascent or safety stops) and planned accordingly. I have the SSI log book from class, and additional pages of a generic style that I will use in the future after these pages have been used up.
I know that my total number of dives is important to keep track of, but I have seen multiple times
"dive time" being a consideration. For example, to get into a certain class you may need 50 logged dives and X amount of dive time.
My generic sheets have a section for Dive Time and Bottom Time, with a section to add previous bottom time. That being said, which one is more important to keep track of? My total time in the water, or the bottom time.
Call me a bit of a paperwork/organization nerd, but I figure it would be easier to just tally as I go than to have to add all this up later.
Thanks, as always.
