On my recent liveaboard trip on the Turks and Caicos Agressor II I found myself buddied up with a person with 10 logged dives. I knew the person and offered to buddy up with him and knew somewhat what I was getting myself into. I did 90% of my dives the week buddied up with this person and found that the dives were pretty task loaded keeping track of depth, time, bouyancy, my buddy, and navigation. It turned out to be a great learning experience for the both of us. His skills improved tremendously through out the week and my buddy skills improved greatly as I was having to be more situational aware of my buddy and our surroundings.
