A guy asked three of us to look for his phone in about 4-5m depth after two of my friends had done a deep dive. We came in post dive around the 20-25 mins mark about my friends had done a 35m (120’) for 40min dive and I had done a 25m for 40min.
We went down and the vis was very bad but doable, then when we reached bottom of course it was bad enough that we couldn’t see the bottom until our faces went into it....
So we were swimming around in confusion in no vis as the silty black soupie “stuff” floated around and we ended going up and repositioning ourselves about 3 times in the space of 7mins. We couldn’t find the phone.
Was this unsafe? Or any risks involved? They were breathing nitrox 32 and I was on air but after 35m dive?
