Rescue dive #4 was 12' for 4 minutes.
Found the body, brought the body to the surface, towed the body, brought her on board and performed CPR.
Did I count it? sure!
Another twist on this question-- do you log aquarium dives, for those that volunteer in aquariums around the country/world?

I read a lot of comments about diving in pools but how about in my bath tub?

I worked my butt off on that dive, saying nothing about all the surface rescues immediately prior to and following that dive.
On a recreational level, if I surface during a dive, but use the same tank to go down again, my computer will log 2 dives, but I'll combine them into 1 in my log book.
I figure since I do all that work squeezing into the 7 mil farmer john and rinsing all the stuff afterwords, I at least get to count it!
Anytime you gear up, go under and breath compressed gas it's a dive. If you come back to the surface in good order it's a good dive.
