Thanks for all your responses. I have emailed the dive shop asking an estimate of bottom time for each dive, haven't got reply yet. My air consumption skill is not great. If I remember it correctly (from dives a year ago), for the deeper dives (60'-90') I did 35-40 min, for the shallower dives (40-60') I did 45-50 min. Actually I haven't done any 20' dives (except during training in lake for OW), so I'm not sure what the bottom time would be. The dive shop mentioned the 1pm dive would leave dock at 1:30pm.

I think here is the likely scenario -
for the 10am dive of 20', boat leaves at 10:30am, dive for 60 min
1:30pm dive of 60', for 40 min
SI 45 min
2nd tank dive of 45', for 50 min
I haven't looked at RDP for a while, here is my calculations, please correct me if I'm wrong:
20' dive, round up to 35', for 60 min, makes it group L
SI is 2 hours (11:30am-1:30pm), makes it group B
next dive is 60', RNT=11, ABT=44. dive for 40 min, makes it group Q (do I need to add the 11 min of RNT to the actual bottom time of 40 here?)
SI is 45 min, makes it group H
next dive is 45' (round up to 50), RNT=28, ABT=52. dive for 50 min.
Did I do that right?
Thanks!
