QuoVadis:And not to offend you but I think your REASONING for not having one makes you a more dangerous diver. If you think nobody has those kinds of emergencies on your boat then in my book, you are not prepared for them. I think you may have a false sense of security.
OE2X:It's the dangerous diver that doesn't carry enough gas with them to get their buddy out of an emergency. Every dive is planned as if an emergency will happen at max depth.
Uncle Pug:Chaseh... do you deny that there are divers who are inclined to view a hanging tank as a contingency? Do you deny that there are divers who are inclined to view a hanging tank as part of their emergency gas supply?
boomx5:When you guys shore dive, do you have a boat follow you over head with a hang tank?
So since you don't use it for shore dives, why do you insist to do it on boat dives?Chaseh:since it's not practical for shore dives, it shouldn't be used for boat dives?
Robert Phillips:Or maybe you can bring it back to me while I wait for you :06:
