I like to blame it on the fact I have abnormally large lungs (x-ray techs have to do 2 separate chest x-rays, a top and a bottom) but the fact is I'm an air hog. Especially irritating is that I'm the natural "fish" and had to convince my wife to learn to scuba dive... yet she has half a tank left when I'm ready to ascend with an 80cf tank, so obviously her dive is cut short as well.
I always ask for 100's when setting up with the dive ops in the caribbean, but most of them act like I'm asking for my own private submarine, although I've found that if I press the issue I usually get set up. I haven't even tried asking for a 120, nor ever tried diving with one at all.
Trip to Cozumel in June and likely Bayahibe in the Dominican in September. Any tips on getting larger tanks or op's there that I could even get 120's with? Anything wrong with going with a 120? (I understand I'd use less lead)
