Exactly...if you are thinking of doing anything past the deck, at a minimum you should be trained in deco procedures. Going off the top of my head, the hanger deck could be anywhere between 140 to 160 ft. Assuming a ratio deco using a 21/35 mix at 150ft w/doubles, I would be able to explore the hanger bay for about 25 minutes with another 25 minutes of deco. The bridge would be a nice distraction during the deco until a hurricane takes it off.Rick Murchison:Proper training means a lot ... overhead, decompression, and at the very minimum, advanced Nitrox (trimix recommended)
But alas, the ex-USS Oriskany is in Florida and I am in Hawaii... If only we can convince the Navy to sink the newly decomed ex-USS Belau Wood...
