Tues. Nov. 21, 2017 - Paul and I staged for our dive to the Deep End. The flow was high, the vis good, but staging was not needed.

Paul turned the dive just before we go to the deep end. :-(

When we got back to our stage bottles, once I hooked mine onto me, I sank to the bottom. I tried to get it off without mucking things up, but could not inflate my bc to give me any extra lift.

Paul ended up carrying my bottle out of the cave.

While Paul went to retrieve our remaining bottles, I spoke to Sid, in from Raleigh, NC.

Sid asked if my bc was filled with water, which it WAS!

Lesson learned!
