KEY LARGO.. 3 divers die OOA

[Goldie_n_jake]

What an unfortunate story.  I read another article which gave more details of the events.  Several key mistakes were made according to this article.  The didn't have a dive plan. They didn't run reels.  They were diving w/ single tanks and left stage tanks at the exit point, not inside the wreck itself.  They penetrated lower sections of the ship where cut outs have not been made to allow for easy access to open water.

What an aweful tragedy.  I've been on dive boats where many people jump in with no dive plan or even going over basic underwater communication with  their dive buddies.
