they way it was described that they were on their way up and Noble looked down and Blake wasnt there anymore made sense if they were free diving

If Nobile shot a Warsaw then I doubt he was freediving. But I know he told me a while back he wanted to move away from scuba and completely to freediving

so if they were diving for lobsters, they weren't freediving, correct? Are there any bellhouses holding lobsters shallow enough to reach freediving? I've dove on rigs tons of times but never tried for lobsters....too worried about bristeworms.

I graduated with Blake. We played little league baseball together as kids as well. I knew his mom as being really sweet and I can't stop thinking about her at the moment. It must be horrible for her right now. He played with us for the alumni softball tournament the first few years we were in it but I have only seen him a few times over the last 4-5 years. This is really making me sick.

The name of the platform was "Lobster"

They may have been lobster diving though.

If they were tank diving then there's a chance he's floating out there somewhere alive....if not, I fear the worst has happened. Hoping for good news soon..
