Hello everyone,
I wanted to get peoples opinion on when you should log a dive or not. My scenario is that lately I have been doing some salvage dives for a gravel pit that lost a very expensive auger bit. It fell off in the water and they are unable to find it much less retrieve it. That is where I come in, as a diver I have been combing the bottom looking for this item on numerous days. The water is so turbid you can not see anything and there is a certain degree of risk, but me and friend were discussing wether I should log these dives or not. My deepest depth has only been to 15' but again like I said it is very dark and there is some risk involved. My friend says that these are technical dives and should be logged as such no matter what the depth. I merely want to feel good about the integrity of the dives that I log. I want to become more experienced and log as many dives as possible but I want to do it right. Advice please. Thanks.
