Re: RIP, diver dead in dry tortugas

"Too heavy to get to the surface"
IMO if your diving with a buddy that doesn't know to drop a victims weight belt and inflate both BCDs then u r same as diving alone.
Yet another tragic and maybe preventable diver death
RIP diver and condolences to family and friends
