I've started through OW again after a 7 year hiatus. I was PADI and know I'm doing it through SSI.
I was comparing my dive charts side by side and I noticed how conservative the SSI table is to the PADI.
What really struck me as odd is how the RT times on the SSI table 3 do not match its corresponding groups dive time on table 1. Like the PADI table does.
For instance 50 feet for 50 mins on a PADI table puts you in group I. If I look at table 3, group I for 50 ft I see an RT of 50. This makes sense.
On the SSI table a 50 ft for 50 mins puts you in G. Table 3 shows RT for G at 50 ft to be 56 RT
Does this make sense to anyone? Is my PADI table out dated or is SSI super conservative?
