Diver's Notes

Open Water Cert Dive #3

Skills demonstrated: weight removal & replace at surface, BCD removal & replace at surface, buoyancy control and hovering.

More at ease today and able to drop 2# from yesterday. A little challenge to descend but able to overcome w/technique, not more weight. Fine at depth.

XL 7mm is too tight, use an XXL if ever using a 7mm again. Oof dah!
