Peasants... I dive with my retired army buddy who doesn't like to fight current. Swapping the scooter and leash under water is pretty simple and we both get the benefit of his expense. Lol
For some reason, this OT side conversation makes me think of this:
 
Up at Wazee with WI friends this weekend. About two more hours on the B*tch (what I’ve named my Spirit). Feeling more comfortable. Took two lbs of lead off. Made a big difference.

Water temp was 52F today.

Now 4 hours home.

What are you using for your undergarments in 52F water?

My usual - REI polypro base layer and my DUI DuoTherrm 300 one piece. I can add a Fourth Element X-Core vest (needs 2 lbs additional), Thermolution heated vest, and Smart Wool 250gram. FE Hot Foot socks over silk liners (found those in a drawer and they work well). FE fleece dry glove liners. Kubi dry gloves.
 
Aren’t they cute with their little hats? 🤣😁 Got the tip of using XS size kids swim caps to cover my scrubbers when I’m reusing sorb. And yes, I know to not keep it longer than a month and it was dry before I covered it up.

Got in an open pool session Friday with an instructor friend who is working on his own stuff. The B*tch will be glad to get into the water! Halloween weekend was the last time she was in the water. Buddies weren’t available. Next time I dive her will be Florida. WI cave diving season started this past weekend. I’ll be out there this weekend. OC SM. Buddy is very glad I can dive thirds now. So am I! 🤣😁

Ignore the mess. I don’t have a lot of space and working on the floor is easier.

Remember the discussion about the Spirit manual a while back? I’ve gotten the go ahead from Kiss to tidy up the punctuation and such. They’re not sure what’s going to happen with the switch over (new owners), but I was told it can’t hurt. Will be my winter project.
