Its worth a lot because its honest. They don't get in the way and they don't create drag. They simply don't look cool and nobody wants to not look cool (rule 6 ya know?) so they all parrot the reasons they've heard others give for not wearing them.v_1matst:I am somewhat of a newbie (AOW for a year now) so take this for what it's worth. I have used my snorkel on every dive I've made to date. I don't find that it gets in the way (I use a very simple, low profile one) and have never noticed drag because of it.
If you're doing penetration dives, sure, its an extra hassle, leave it at home. If you're doing the standard tourist "Cozi" thing, you should carry it, you may need it when the boat crew leaves you at sea
