Congratulations!
To calculate your SAC you will need a depth reference to go with the time and usage.
One basic method mentioned is to swim at a known depth for a know period of time noting the start and end pressures.
Another option if you have a computer or happen to rent one is to extract the average depth from it. This will get you to a SAC value based on your entire profile.

Greetings and congrats on your certification! I am pleased to hear of your love of navigation, it will serve you well in the future. Diving is awesome even if visibility is not! Find some dive buddies and a dive club that dive local and start to build your experience from there! I just recently did a dive with about 3-5 feet of vis and loved it!
When the lights go out it gives us a mirror image of what we are made of! Just be sure to always dive well inside your comfort level and don't be intimidated if conditions are beyond your experience to call the dive. Manageable stress is one thing but always be conservative when evaluating diving conditions. Some of the dives that I treasure the most are what some people call horrible! Have a blast and enjoy your diving. Dive as much as you can, as often as you can and keep us posted on your progress! CamG Keep diving....keep training....keep learning!

Congratulations. If you spend any time in Kelso, give me a PM. We try to make a trip to the sound at least once a month, and I've been itching to go dive coldwater lake.

Congratulations on your certification. Come dive in the Keys, the water is much nicer here and warmer. You'll actually get to see some "beautiful" things!
