Burn the heretic!
There was me thinking that ScubaBoard was a paragon of virtue, certainly compared with other corners of the internets.
What's great is being able to learn. Even numpties are sometimes right, even if they are wrong and make it incredibly hard to find the "right" from a sea of nonsense.
Good on you John.
As an aside, I did my first "recreational" dive in goodness knows how many years whilst on holiday a couple of weeks ago. Struth, drop off the RIB, race against the clock around the dive site and climb up a ladder. Yes, ladder, climb... All in 45 minutes. Seemed as if we'd only just jumped in and then had to get out.
Thankfully did a nice 3 hour dive without them for the final dive/day. Far nicer. Even walked out up a sandy beach between the topless sunbathers; the 35 mins of deco was literally laying on the sandy bottom after spending ages in the reef overhangs and caverns playing with groupers. Much more like it.
Now understand how hard the DiveMasters work. Now given up on that as my fantasy retirement job -- seems like a lot of work!
