    +1 on contacting Steve.

    I would wait untill around 500 dives before heading to Chuk, JMHO. The lakes and the sea way are littered with good stuff, as is the entire Atlantic. Plenty to dive before you head to Chuk. If you wait for more training and dives to go by the Chuk experiance will be safer and more enjoyable.

    3 Options:

    1. Stay as you are & dive respectfully of your limits - get frustrated that your depth and bottom time are very limited on those amazing dives.

    2. Stay as you are & dive aggressively/beyond limits - enjoy slightly longer bottom time and/or more depth, but run the line with DCS.

    3. Get tech trained* & dive respectfully of your limits - enjoy as much depth and bottom time as you want on those amazing dives.

    *Extended Range or Tec50 will make all those dives accessible with ample bottom time.
