People talk about weather preventing their dives.
This makes sense to me when you're shore diving, because the waves/swells are difficult to manage even when they're not very big.
But when you're out on the water in a boat, how bad does it have to be to prevent diving? After all, you're going to be under the water, not at the surface (primarily).
I do understand that the surface weather does cause currents under the surface. I just wonder how bad the weather has to be at the surface to make a boat dive impractical.
