But as it is, it favors the diver who is getting experience getting into and out of the water, over the diver who is in the system. On a typical 4 day dive trip it's easy to spend 12+ hours in the cave on only 4 dives. Why not find a way to level the bar?
    Are you an NSS-CDS member? If so, send me a request for a change in the Abe Davis award, and I will present it to the BoD.

    I am a member. I'll be happy to put something togther. Can give me a little guidance on what you feel should be included to be an effective request?
