Jim,
I wondered about that also, but why does it happen suddenly at a deeper depth. Maybe a coincidence, also my co2 level was a bit on the high side, (3200ppm) I need to get a proper O2 meter, mine crapped out.

Hank,
How you stopping and hovering. Are you weighted to neutral
buoyancy?Are you riding the bubble? Doesn't Gamma use
forward motion and a dive plain for depth control?

Today I dove Gamma to 95
feet in
Kimbasket Lake (bush Harbour) the
visibility was
awful.
Maybe 2 feet at best. Big mystery though, when I dive
to 95 feet, in a matter of 5 min the pressure
inside drops
by 500 feet. The pressure
stays right on perfect until
I go deeper.
My theory, the water is glacier fed, very
cold at depth causing the temp inside the sub to drop,
creating negative pressure. Could that be
it?
Vance, did that happen in the north
sea?
On a positive note, I can stop in
the water Colum at any
depth and hover. I
can surface and stop at ten feet
and
hover.
Hank
