I have never done it my self just platforms, hog lines and fining my ass off but have seen some guys use it. Any one hear use it and how do you set it up with your harness?
 
I can't see why you'd want a BC or a BPW for SSA.
 
Dont do it, its stupid. The guys using it dont know anything you dont know.
Ive never seen someone doing SS work rocking a BC, thats just silly and extra gack, and also a good way to get singled out as the new guy on thejob site
 
If you have your weighting right and you are neutrally buoyant you should not need a BC. BCs are for divers that have too much weight on and don't understand neutral buoyancy, i.e. hobby lobbies in scuba gear.

You must be either working around a lot of untrained coyboys that are going to get you killed, or you have mistaken a ARVEST for a scuba BC.
 
They were BC alright had a low pressure hose right off there bail out reg. I asked about it they gave me a look like I had two heads. :confused: I was not workin with these guys saw them when I was packing up for the day they said they were going to do some sea chest inspections.
 
so what your saying is they ran their BC off thier bail out ???
Thats Nucking Futs !!!!!! Were the Phillipinos ???
I would probably do one of 2 things
1. just laugh my balls off, and tell them to lick me where I **** before walkin off site
2. Kick thier asses for being so ****ing ignorant and risking lives....before I walked off site
Moral of the story is... Dont work with these guys!
What company was it ? Lots of fly by night ****s out there
 
I did not stay to ask there name. They just happen to be workin in the same port but between us I think there was one green card for the four of them.:wink:
