It takes the same time after a couple of days as it does after 28 days.
Or, for that matter, 280 days.

Don't they teach people about saturation diving any more?

Cheers,

You don't just chat with the instructor and ask questions while on the boat
heading to/from the dive site and while waiting for the rest of the class to
appear before it starts?

I learnt some stuff about saturation diving from just chatting to the
instructor. Basicly once you are 100% saturated for a depth, then it doesn't
matter how long you are down for, 2 day, 20 days, 200 days... it'll take
exactly the same amount of time to decompress for all those times...

:P

Well, I got my C-Card all the way back in 1978, so the details are a tad
fuzzy, but when we did the section on DCS, the instructor (Marty Owen,
for those Melbournites who may also be ancient) explained that once you
had absorbed as much Nitrogen as possible, it was simpler to stay at
pressure.

He had worked on the rigs down in Bass Strait (but I can't recall if he
had done saturation diving), maybe that was why he mentioned it, as he
had seen it (or done it).

And note that I said "about saturation diving" not "to do saturation
diving".

Of course, this was back in the days when all we had were USN DC tables,
none of these fancy DC guages that take the thrill out of a deep or cold
dive :->

Cheers,
Gary B-)

Hi all

I don't know whether you're talking about another diver, or myself, who
hangs around this site a bit. If you're referring to another person then I
apologise for getting involved, but I am Mark R Schmidt from Sydney and not
connected with the person Gary R Schmidt. Small world this internet isn't
it?

Cheers all

Mark

Nah its all right...Mark is Mr D Duck. He worked on the Rockwater a while
back and posted some stuff about theb Hybaric deck on the Ship. I was just
telling some who asked he was back at sea and wouldnt be able to answer his
question.
