"THE BLACK TIDE" sounds bad....I hope they did find them.
The local stations there are reporting 6 of the 8 found and hospitalized? Nothing confirmed.

According to local news all 8 were found. They had drifted the opposite direction underwater and used the Camera Strobes to alert a Helicopter. Good News!

Strobes, GREAT IDEA! We use strobes attached to the anchor line so we can find our way back when diving in New Jersey, I have always thought it might be a good idea to have a small one on me while diving, especially good for a night dive! They are fairly inexpensive and pretty small as well.
I have also seen them used inside larger wrecks rather than using a reel for large areas to mark the exit.
These were the expensive ones, they were with the cameras!

I know, but what I am saying is that any decent strobe would be a great thing to have in that situation. It might be something boat or night divers should consider having.
A rescue strobe is a normal part of my emergency kit.Originally Posted by acelockco
It's not that it should be a part of an emergency kit but standard equipment. I have one attached to my bc on all dives, day or night. It's small and I don't really notice it, and they really aren't that expensive.
Everything in my emergency kit is "standard." It goes on every dive with me. It is a pouch that contains, at a minimum: strobe, small flashlight, 2 x red rocket flare, 2 x hand flare, 2 x red smoke, 2 x dye packs, signal mirror, safety sausage, and whistle.
