My buddy and I get disoriented while boat diving. There is a milf current, and we surface away from the
boat. We should _________. If unable to reach the boat or too tired, we should _________. - CORRECT

My buddy and I remain neutrally buoyant and stay above the bottom enough to avoid contact. We do
this because bottom contact: - CORRECT ANSWER May injure or kill fragile aquatic life, tends to disturb
the bottom and reduce viability, increases the risk of accidental cuts, scrapes, or stings.
When assessing conditions, if there is anything that causes me significant anxiety or concern, if I can't
address it, I should not dive. Ultimately I am responsible for my own safety, so I can make the final
decision to dive. T/F - CORRECT ANSWER True
When planning to dive in an environment that is new to me, it is recommended that I get a local
orientation from an experienced diver or professional who knows the procedures, hazards, points of
interest and other factors unique to the environment. T/F - CORRECT ANSWER True
Risks of diving beyond my training and experience limits include that: - CORRECT ANSWER In some forms
of diving, the hazards are not obvious, it can cause me to have a false sense of security, and anxiety from
doing so can distract me from noticing other problems.
While planning a shore dive, my buddy says it will be "no problem" diving in high surf that I've never
trained in nor have experience with. Looking at the surf, I don't think I am prepared for diving in it. My
best response is to: - CORRECT ANSWER Politely refuse to dive and suggest an alternate location with no
significant surf.
