I had a look for existing threads, but can't find one, so am here to ask some more experienced people for their help. I am going on a liveaboard and have booked to borrow a BCD and regs. The trip is with the school I learned to dive with, and I think they have booked my BCD in a particular size without asking me based on the size of BCD I wore when I learned to dive with them 18 months ago. But I have lost 70lbs since then so will probably not be the same size.
This leaves me asking which size I will need. What I need help with is calculating how much bigger a BCD to get than my actual chest size, based on my exposure suit. I tried some mathematical calculations based on circumference etc and the numbers didn't look right.
My chest is 31 around the rib cage, 37.5 round the rest, and I'm going to be wearing a 5mm suit. Any ideas?
Thanks,
