I have taken several blue water trips in my short dive tenure and I have always had fun
I have always tried to remember to carry a whistle, a SMB, and sun reflector signalling device. I will admit I haven't always done so. Anywho, I just purchased a small backpacking mirror from the local outdoors store. I just stuffed in a BCD pocket for that next blue water trek. I also carry an old discarded CD for the same purpose.
Now it occurs to me, serious question here, exactly what is the proper protocol for using a signalling device like a mirror?
