Unguided dive. Poor visibility. Dove the bow section with Todd. He is uncertified and we dove together with Simone and Suzanne. Todd got in the water and went down before the rest of us so I followed him down. He drifted up to the surface and then came back down. We left Simone and Suzanne at the surface and we continued on to the wreck site. We took two photos and then continued around the bow of the wreck. He followed me then I saw him move rapidly to the surface. I had been in the water for 15 minutes and knew that the dive was over at that point. I surfaced stopping at 15 ft for three. Minutes before continuing to the surface. Todd was at the surface though making no effort to move to the boat. I looked Around for Simone and Suzanne and found their bubble trail so I knew they were descending. I continued to the boat. Todd had told me he was fine when we reached the surface but when I got to the boat he was drifting away and finally told me to come get. Him. I dropped the dinghy and motored out to his location and hauled him and his equipment into the boat. We motored back to the boat and we offloaded the dinghy just as Simone and Suzanne were surfacing. Todd complained of pain in his left arm and chest."
