Yes, and surprisingly his dental and medical records where also in there.

Got it open, and inside was 6 wheat pennies, some paperwork we couldn't read, and a pair of old horn rimmed glasses, and alot of mud.

I hit the mother load.

Did you float it with your lift bag? Give us the details, how did you tie it off, did it shoot away like the outboard motor? TELL US!!!

For you that don't know here is the outboard motor incident that he is speaking of.

I did float this one to, I was working my way up to this one. I had a little better luck with this bad boy, this one came up nice and slow. Wish it wouldn't have though, maybe it would have busted open and saved me the trip, and taking a torch to it.

I use my Surface Dive-Alert to fill bags.
Underwater there is no noise - it just bubbles nicely.

I'm finally taking a tek course and am struggling with lift bag deployment. My instructor has us blowing air into the open bag through the primary reg exhaust I am breathing with. I can do that, no problem. The part I struggle with is tying that damn loop from the onset.

Does anyone know of a step by step diagram on the web somewhere that I could take a look at and memorize. In our class, they go through the entire thing so fast and you rarely get a chance to observe what has to be done. I saw the video, and that was fine, but since I am handicapped with making loops underwater, I would like a 'diagram' or the like.

After that, I should be fine and dandy.

I cannot thank you enough for posting this link. That site has answered probably a dozen questions I've been wanting to ask here. Absolutely MARVELOUS!
