Cool video.. So that depth was 60 feet.

Why doesn't the diver descend with several bags and several lift bags... just fill a bag, send it up on a lift bag and work on the next bag? Why keep a rope tied to the boat?
 
I take one bag that has a float on it. The tender in the boat above can keep track of where I am by looking for the float. There are other boats in the area, some using a drag to fish for scallops. If the tender sees the dragger boat come near my float he can keep them away from me. There is no line connected to the boat. Thanks for watching the video.
