Did initial training in the N. Fl caves. AL plate, drysuit, 3L fabers & a 3lb weight mounted high on the can had me weighted and trimmed perfectly....
Got back out this past weekend in a 3mm in salt water and I was way heavy....
On the reef in 15' I pulled the lead off and still sank, w/ an empty wing and normal loop...

Tim, if your wet suit has more than 50 dives on it then it probably has lost it's buoyancy. If it's one of the inexpensive suits then it was never 3mm to begin with (they have a 1mm variable)
Consider using a better 5mm suit, it will trim you out a bit better.
