Week 8, Day 37

Today the weather was absolutely atrocious. Hard rain and strong winds hit us under the pier and there was nowhere to hid except during our dives. During our two dives we performed an in-water rescue following the same method as used with surface supply equipment (ie running commentary, ensuring the bailout is closed and asking for assistance back to surface) Our second dive was an assessment dive and we had to take measurements of a base plate that is on the seabed. Using a tape measure and a board, a rough sketch and accurate measurements were taken and transferred on to paper on surface. Tomorrow afternoon we have the surface supplied top-up exam which is 10 written questions.

You still dive in that weather?

I'm so nervous about tomorrow. Hope we made the right choice. At least the car comes with a free 5D!
