Coastiejoe,Did quite a bit of recovery diving myself, mostly in zero or very limited vis. Tried to stay in warm water so none recovered/survived. Six different dive certifications and a little over 1000 dives. Did a lots of emergency medical/lifesaving work and it was common for some of the victims to complain about one thing or another. I think it helped them defuse the blame from themselves. I had two cases that we searched for that were false reports of drownings. It's always nice to check the financials of a missing person, in retrospect.If you decide to go to St Croix. Let me know I will send you a list of good sites you can dive. I lived there for 4 years and was in charge of Buck Island Reef NM. Spent most of my free time diving with my coastie buddy. Myself I am off again in March to Cayman Brac. Great off the beach diving sites, but the walls you need a charter unless you know where to go. Haven't seen quite as bit of good visablity as down island.Be Safe
