even on wrecks, I prefer to ascend on an incline. wow, RH you are talking over my head.

Deco curve

 

[Cacia]

oh, is that the word for that? thanks... I will be throwing that around.

deco curve.....deco curve....
so, stupid question. What do those light wires go to?..a battery pack?

I have noticed that since I started diving on the deco curve that I might not be getting it just so because I am popping into a bit of deco. guess I am getting distracted and staying too deep too long. So..maybe an incline is more precise, in my situation? A deco curve is a mathematical function. What I do is not.

Yep, there is a 12 volt battery on my right side. With that light I get just about 4 hours of burn time.

like what kind of dives do you mean?

Bikini Atoll for one.

We are doing a 2 week trip to Halifax that is a bit of a PITA logistically to set up...but its doable. Other places in the world its tougher to do.

The ones just outside of downtown.:14:

Your nobody until you have been downtown.

so, Dennis why are women's sac rates better? lower BMR? less skeletal muscle to feed O2? bigger brains?


oh, yea, I never dive squares. So, your deco is planned for your outside parameter? that would shorten my dive time, I can tell you that. (It might make me miss the whole thing.)

Less O2 requirements. There are also a lot of men that have very low SACs. It depends how much you dive too. My SAC is between .3 and .35 on most of my dives, warm water and my average depth might be 65' but I am over 100' on most dives. But I have almost 400 dives this year. Warm water makes a big difference.

 

[Cacia]

tell us about downtown.

 

[JeffG]

tell us about downtown.

Sigh...long story. It involves a hero, GI3, ...a villain, AG, and a place, where only our hero can get to....Downtown. A part of a cave in Florida.

How does that work on a wreck when your boat is either tied into a wreck or moored on a buoy tied into the werck?

Ah..ok, so if I understand, you are talking logistic concerns.
