Jeff, bring your scooter on our next dives. I have been wanting to bring mine out but didn't have a "scooter CCR buddy" around.

I think that I need a scooter.
My calves are still sore from Sunday's 3hr dive

Why else would you color a rebreather red (e.g., Optima) if not to subliminally suggest it belongs in shallow water? Because as every diver knows, red is the first color to fade out as you go deeper...

Jeff, just make sure you don't scooter with your Optima deeper than 100ft of depth around a Meg, because they just get all embarrassed and upset at the fact that you can go anywhere they can go, even though your rebreather is lighter, more streamlined, near impossible to flood, more colorful, and it's scrubber can be packed in approximately 45 seconds, which is like 20 minutes faster than it takes them to do it!

So just stay away from them, that way you won't keep rubbing salt in their wounds!!
