Description: Completed the final Divemaster Skill Development task - breathing from a free flowing regulator, attempted the last Waterskills Exercise - equipment exchange while sharing a single source and completed the Diver Rescue exercise.
- The skills development was completed successfully, scoring a 93/120 for the 24 skills. A pass mark is 86 with no mark less than 3. Neil assigned this a pass as per his email on 08/21/12.
- The equipment exchange wasn't as successful, since I couldn't get the single source breathing rhythm correct and in control enough to do the actual exchange. My breathing rate also increases whenever I remove my mask - something I definitely need to work on.
- The rescue exercise was completed satisfactorily and awarded a pass by Neil as per email on 08/21/12.
