    What do you do with keys while shore diving on Bonaire?

    I was just curious what others do with their vehicle and room keys while shore diving on the island. This last trip I tied both to a snap swivel, using cave line, so they could be clipped off securely. This worked very well, especially as the truck ignitions for rentals at Buddy Dive do not...
