Just been reading about the tragedy.......

Very sad, indeed and a nightmare for the family.
It\'s hard enough to cope with a sudden loss, but when the body cannot be found, it must be hell.

Thoughts go out to all the family and friends and also to those involved in the search.
 
Tis very sad :(

I was involved in 2 searches last year for lost divers, tis not a nice thing :(
Both were found a few days later, so at least there was some sort of closure for the families.

One question has to be asked though, where was his buddy???
 
Sad news, :(
My brother is a Diving instructor and very experienced diver,he always says its a great sport/hobby but its very dangerous and even the best get caught out.Lets wait and see before we cast judgement
 
No matter how experienced you are the sea in ones of its moods can easily take you. Thoughts go out to the famiy, and hopefully the sea will give up her dead.
 
My cousin is in the coastgaurds and he was out looking yesterday. Still no sign. Apparently the diver had 2 tanks on his back and 2 smaller ones on his front and they think that the weight could be keeping the body down.
It\'s like was mentioned before it\'s terribly sad for the family and without some form of closure must be even more torture.
