is this a newbie excursion?, etc.
This is a familiarization dive. Ny sense is that anyone who has substantial wreck experience that this trip would be to fundamnetal. We plan on going over rule of thirds, disproportionat tanks sizes, baselines, basic line techniques, equipment configurations, primary and back up lights, spools, lift bags, primary and secondary tie-off's. ( if we do penetrate it will be on the 2nd dive and then only very lightly to demonstrate tie offs), lost/cut line protocols. I'm trying to keep this at a basic level so anyone who has wreck experience this may be redundant or too basic. I would add however, that all are invited, but bear in mind that we will stay focused on the elemental aspects.
