    How do I set up a deployable ascent line?

    I shoot a yellow bag for assistance needed - red for everything else operators have their own protocols - as @acxc says the briefing is important - as long as theres a clearly understood plan between divers and crew it will reduce screw ups

    Unknown Deep divers missing - Serpentara island, Italy

    agree, Gas analysis will be a good place to start looking -some sort of medical mishap for both is less likely, one person getting into some sort of trouble and the second helping and dying too is possible

    Question Why GF high not lower that GF low?

    i think were at a stage where computers can handle a clever sophisticated one, if theres a better model why wouldn't you use it - the linked article above explains the situation in the first paragraph Dr. David Doolette’s lecture on Advances in Decompression Theory and Practicewas among the...

    Question Why GF high not lower that GF low?

    I wonder if the either or options ( deep- shallow) aren't sufficient to adequately explain the complexities of of decompression models and this is an attempt to combine both with some sort of algorithm to weigh the deeper dives as opposed to using a model to cover all depths. It seems overly...

    Different entry technique with multiple travel gas / stage / deco cylinders

    The situation will vary depending on other factors - current is a big one -hypoxic gas is another im not in favour of struggling with lots of tanks on a boat where a slip will cause injury - If your doing 5 tanks its likely a significant dive and youll probably have support divers. you can hang...

    Travel insurance coverage question

    I have a yearly insurance package with DAN and extended travel ins benefits - just bear in mind that if you get sick on a LOB you must have a doctor to say you aren't well to dive - so if theres no doctor on board your out of luck With allianz theres a clause that states you can only claim one...
