I think this is good news. For us and his family. If my memory serves me, this is the guy who went in feeling sick, signaled his buddies he was not well, was accompanied on only a portion of the ascent (signaled he would continue on his own?), removed his mask at the surface, appeared to lose consciousness moments later, and sank back under.
At least that was the description I read somewhere on this board. If so, it doesn't seem to be equipment failure as much as poor judgement by the diver and his buddies.
Anyway, it's nice to know he has been recovered. I hope MHK finds the diver at Farnsworth.
