I just came back from Bonaire where I took a Solo Diving Course.
One of the exercises involved doffing your BCD at about 20 feet and inspecting it in case you might have gotten entangled while diving. Then you had to re-don the BCD.
What happened in my case was that because my BCD has integrated weights ( Cressi Aqualight-R, has fold down "weight pockets") I became positively bouyant after removing the BCD and really had to struggle to get it back on but was finally able to do so.
Would like to get feedback as to the best way to handle a situation like this. Am hoping it doesn't require the use of a weight belt.
Any feedback will be appreciated.
