Diver drowns during course

[*Floater*]

The Tiller wreck which we were diving is in about 115 ft. of Lake Ontario water. The temperature that day was 42 degrees farenheit which is cool but not unbearable.

115 ft. is beyond AOW limits for some agencies, but not others. I wonder which one he was diving with. I did my AOW with PADI, and after I got my card they specifically emailed me to ask if the instructor took me below 100 ft. among other questions. (He didn't by the way).

Just because the bottom is 115 doesn't mean they went all the way. I did my PADI AOW on the Phoenix ( http://victorysports.net/charters/phoenix.htm ) which goes below 100 ft. Out max depth was 80 ft during the class. I had to do a charter later to get to see the rest of the wreck.

I split the digression about instructor tactics out and put it in its own thread.
