Reminder for Ctwreck and usmarinekurt...
The formula for calculating this is as follows (assumes salt water):
[(N2)(D + 33)/.80] - 33 = EAD
N2 is the decimal equivalent of the percent nitrogen in the mixture. Remember Nitrox I has 68% or .68 nitrogen and Nitrox II has 64% or .64.
D is for Depth expressed in feet.
33 is the equivalent depth in feet that is equaled to one atmosphere of salt water. It's added to indicate total atomospheres expressed in feet. It's subtracted out at the end to indicate the depth of water. (Use 34 when calculating for fresh water.)
.80 is the partial pressure of nitrogen in air.

Dave never quits does he?

Assemble your tanks before hand. We can put them on the boat for you
We made it to the Bass on Friday left from New London, wind was blowing from the sw
we hit 4 footers on the wreck site jumped into 35 + feet of viz.We dropped onto the conning tower at 119 then to the sand at 151. Swam to the stern dropped to see the brass props. Then back to the broken off section in front of the conning tower.
we saw big stripers big tautog and some other species.
6 foot waves were waiting for us on the surface, we loaded up and got the f out of there
total dive time approx 52 min

Funny I was thinking of doing just that this time, that is putting the ID's together before I get them on the boat. Great minds think alike! Sounds like you guys had your hands full! I'm thinking next time I'm going if there's an opening. I thought the Bass went to 190fsw but I since learned it's 160fsw max. 190 would have been too much without making a few deep divers 1st but 160, I can handle that much narcosis cold.
I guess your new ladder worked well. Getting back on the boat must have been a long day.
See you Sunday on the nazi sub.
By the way, Mrs. AfterDark made her 1st real scuba dive last Sunday at FTW Jamestown. We got to 20 fsw for 45 minutes.
Doesn't sound like much, but for her it was a giant stride. I'm very proud of her. She'll never be diving with us but she will be able to enjoy the sport within her limitations, which I think will evolve over time.
