The SS Tarpon is a significant shipwreck. She went down in 1937 killing 18 crew members, including Willis G. Barrow who was her captain. Adley Baker, a member of the crew, was able swim the 9 miles to shore in gust-force winds. It was a difficult 25-hour race, but Adley Baker survived.

Never hold your breath
As every good entry-level dive student knows, this is the most important rule of scuba. And for good reason — breath holding underwater can result in serious injury and even death. In accordance with Boyle's law, the air in a diver's lungs expands during ascent and contracts during descent.
As you become a qualified scuba diver, you learn the basics of an essential scuba system. A cylinder, weights, an exposure suit, regulators, BCD gauge and timing device, mask and fins are the bare essentials.
