I never had trouble seeing my husband, he got a light cannon - that thing puts out so much light. All my gear is black and I had a crummy little light, so I agree with you all - tank light with own color and a backup light. I also agree about the strobe. Some other people had them and they were distracting.
We were on the Sun Dancer II. They lit that boat up like a xmas tree - so no problem there, but having a surface light in any other case is an excellent idea.
Thanks, everyone! I've still got so much to learn.
BTW the night dives there were way fun. I swear tarpon are evil fish though! They'd bump you to get you to shine the light on fish so they had an easier time hunting. Freaky, but fun.
