Dan,
I did a 60' dive by Cozumel with my lighter in my pocket. Had to send
the lighter back to Colibri. :-(

Class ring is about it for me. I was dumb enough to jump into a lake
once wearing my pager (remember those?). It survived with a new battery
and plenty of time to air dry.

So what have you dropped in the water from your boat or dock?

For me....tools, hardware, a boat brush, a fishing rod/reel, cans of
wax and a set of keys.. I was successful retrieving most of the metal
items (if they were worth it) using a large magnet the marina office
had, a large fish net with extension pole (retrieved the keys with
that) or a boat hook.

Never lost my cell phone or expensive sunglasses, although I did put a
pair of fairly decent sunglasses on the hardtop of a friends boat and
forgot they were there until we arrived at his dock. Those glasses
were never to be seen again.

How about you? ;-)

BTW: I admit this is fluff, but who the hell cares....it is boating
related and not OT....eh?
