I just got certified 2 weeks ago, and tomorrow I go on my first OW dive out into the Gulf. I did my OWC in a sink hole and freshwater... so this will be my first dive into salt water. What should I be keeping in mind regarding weights and neutral buoyancy? In my previous OWC dives I would go down to the bottom (which was usually 18 ft or a platform at 18 ft) and become neutral there, how does that work when you're in a much much deeper water body? I know it's only been 2 weeks, but while I'm really really excited I'm also a wee bit nervous. Any helpful tips would be great!
