I need some advice on the right amount of lift for the BCD of my wife. During our last dive trips we always used a rental BCD (Aqualung Wave / Mares Rover). I think it was size S.
A friend gave me a size S Seac Ego of his wife since she got pregnant and gave up diving.
The size of the jacket is absolutely perfect for my wife. However I am wondering if the BCD lift is sufficient, since the weight given in the size chart is less her weight. The size chart gives the following guidelines: size 171-175cm / 5.6- 5.74ft and 60-70 KG/132-155lbs.
My wife is 175cm/5.8ft and has 75kg/165lbs.
The BCD has a lift of 11.2kg/24.7 lbs.
Do you think this enough lift using a 5.5mm wetsuit and 5kg/10lbs of weights?
