Thank you for all your solid advice. I do believe that I have been trained and am equipped mentally and physically to deal with any emergencies I am encounter (apart from lack of pony which is a priority for me). I have not been in a real diving emergency yet (hopefully I won't have to) but...

So basically: 1. What are the learning outcomes of self-reliant diver/solo diver courses? 2. What skills do you consider essential for solo diving? 3. Is specialised training and gear really required for solo diving (In your opinion). Background: I have recently began diving solo at my regular...
