'Divers removed his weight belt ...'

This is a tragic story and condolences to his family. Cathedral is one of the better sites at Anacapa.

It provides a reminder to all of us of the importance of dropping the weight belt and exhaling to the surface. Finding a missing diver at depth takes time and that time could have made a difference in the outcome.
