I assume these were two of your no stop dives in Cozumel last week. You didn't give avg depth so we would have an idea of what you did. No tables would allow you to plan these dives.I wanted to make this response separately.
In an earlier post, I gave dive details of a 2-tank dive I did last week. I will repeat the challenge here: explain to me how you and your boys would handle the planning for this 2-tank dive using EANx 32:
Dive One: 103 feet for 81 minutes
Surface Interval: 1:15
Dive #2: 82 feet for 88 minutes
I dived Navy tables from 1970-1980. I dived PADI RDP from 1997-2002. I have dived a modern dive computer for every dive since 2002, 2145 dives. Long live the dive computer.
I use my NDL planner all the time. I do much of my diving in SE FL on charter boats, much of it with 36% nitrox. The SIs are often on the short side due to the length of my dives and the dive schedule. I often check my NDL to allow me to make my next dive, consistent with the dive schedule. Sometimes I only need a half hour, sometimes I take the whole 45-50 min.
