I'm switching to a BPW. Of course this means I will lose a significant amount of ditchable weight if I get a SS plate. In the tropics I might be diving with as little as 4-6lbs. Locally it will be more like 10-12 lbs. With an Al plate I'd clearly be carrying 8lbs at a minimum (ditchable)
I know you shouldn't dive over weighted. But I also know you shouldn't dive with too much unnecessary weight. So the big q is...how much ditchable weight is "recommended"?
Thanks.
