SOS Toronto Chapter would appreciate it if divers using this line on descent and ascent helped us keep this line clean. Also, if you get to the block and notice that the 5-gallon block chain lift jug is missing, is wrapped around the mooring line, or is less than 100% full of air, please notify us at [email protected]. Thank you.
