It was suggested I post this here:
I am not a diver. I am looking to understand a little about what can/might go wrong. A dear friend left for Thailand yesterday to better coordinate a search for her son, who is missing from a scuba trip there. He was using something called a rebreather (?). He is an experienced diver and a good swimmer but the rebreather is relatively new equipment for him. He was with 8 other divers and a dive master. He got in the water, was instructed by the diver to swim to the front of the boat and wait at the mooring rope. He got in, started for the front of the boat...and hasn't been seen for three or four days.
Obviously, since we aren't there we don't know what happened, but at that phase of the dive, it seems impossible he's gone. Any ideas?
