Hi everyone it's been some time since I last posted on this site.Computer problems.
Just got my Advance open water cert a few weeks ago down in Miami.Great Birthday gift to myself.
A group of us plan to make a trip down to Key Largo and Key West Oct 2nd to Dive the USS Speigel Grove and the Vandenberg in Key West.
Just spending all my money on my Advance open water course I can't take the Nitrox course before Oct.
Here is my question
Is it possible to make these 2 wreck dives without being Nitrox certified?
I realize my bottom time is short.
Here is what I need help with
let's say the wreck lies 120 feet to the bottom
if I descend at a rate of 60 feet a minute
according to dive table I have roughly 10 minutes of bottom time
I would like to start my ascend up the line at around 1200 psi.
I should make 3 safety stops figure 80' 60' and 20'
what are my safety stop times at these depths?
Is this going to work?
any and all suggestions welcomed.
thanks for all the help
