I was doing 5 dives a day on liveaboards in Australia. Could maybe have done some more if the dive deck were open for diving. Here in Alaska - cold water and a drysuit - 3 dives/day is plenty.

I would posit that those two are linked, i.e. that getting cold fast and becoming very tired are directly linked. It would be interesting for your dive buddy to wear more thermal protection in order to see what effect that has on their tiredness. (From my experience, I would propose that with enough thermal protection that they do not feel cold, they should see a distinct reduction in tiredness.)I don't get very tired, although my dive buddy does and he tends to get cold fast after a dive or two.
How long are these dives, for those of you doing 8-10 dives in a day? :shocked2:...
