Thanks to everyone who answered my questions about why to log. I started this one so as not to have this question get lost if someone new does a search (of which I came up with zippy).
So now I'm logging and the question is "what is a dive"? I mean, 2mins just below the surface isn't a dive, but 2 minutes at 100' (if you could do that) sure ought to be a dive. My computer gets confused and calls a dive anything below 5' no matter how long. But for a certification, like showing 50 dives for DMC if I started that, would clearly not be 50 x 5'.
So what is it folks? What constitutes an acceptable loggable dive for purposes of continuing education where you have to show a dive log?
Thanks!
(just noticed I can't spell for $h*t, oops)
