Coronavirus Florida: County parks, golf courses, pools, marinas will reopen Wednesday
It is probably as much for the deck hand/crew as it is the the diver assuming that the crew will need to assist some divers to the stern of the boat to enter the water. Then assist again from ladder to seat. It’s close quarters anyway on the boat but no getting around close contact during this if the diver does need assistance.The reg stuff protects the diver in those moments, assuming they breathe off the tank. Not sure that four minute period does much in the context of 2+ hours aboard together loading, suiting up, gearing up/down, eating, gearing up/down, eating, unsuiting, unloading.
Protecting the crew is a very good idea. Yet California just clarified that wearing a mask with a one way exhale valve is missing the point of wearing one. As that valve lets everything through and does not protect people around you. That such masks do not count as a face covering.It is probably as much for the deck hand/crew as it is the the diver assuming that the crew will need to assist some divers to the stern of the boat to enter the water.

Broward County Press Conference Regarding Partial Reopening The County will be issuing an Emergency Order tomorrow to be effective Wednesday, April 29th that will open some recreational facilities on a limited basis as long as social distancing continues to be observed. This is being done in coordination with Dade and Palm Beach Counties:
The following will be opening for limited hours to be determined by the municipalities (a coinciding order from the City will be necessary to identify facilities in the city that will reopen and determine the hours and restrictions):
• Golf Courses – one person per cart only unless in the same household; social distancing to be observed.
• Boat Ramps and Marinas – all public and private boat ramps and marinas will be opened. No rafting up of boats allowed, only one boat on the ramp at all times, social distancing to be observed.
• Pools at Multifamily Developments – open to residents only. All pool chairs, railings, etc, must be sanitized between users, facial coverings must be warn in hallways and elevators on the way to the pool.
• Some County pools at parks will be opened but not all of them.
• Social distancing and diligent hand sanitizing and facial coverings guidance is still in effect.
• No beaches are being opened yet.
• No changes to essential businesses and no other businesses are being reopened yet.
If the downward trajectory observed in daily case numbers continues after these facilities are reopened and testing is increased, including homebound testing, than other relaxation of measures may be considered.
