No where near that dive count but never had that problem either.761 dives to date and never even a HINT of a Warhammer. Go figure.
There should be another part to the "scenario" section of the Rescue course. Location of facilities for both normal use and in case of onshore emergencies. I have been in that situation a few times and always secure a plan A and plan B, sometimes even a plan C.

Reminds me of a saying my old boss had - lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part. If you ever have the need to get out of a wetsuit that quick - you have likely done something very wrong such as eaten some dodgy food. That counts as bad planning to me.
