Finally nailed a tricky underwater repair on my own.

Feels good to handle it solo for a change.

Remember reading an old scuba forum thread where people said low visibility was the real killer for solo fixes. Trying to see through a foggy mask with one hand while your other hand fumbles for the right socket wrench is its own special kind of hell. That moment when your fingers are numb and a sealant tube just wants to float away makes you want to scream. But getting it done alone, that's a different kind of win you can't really explain.

What was the worst part, trying to see or just not dropping the tool? Those solo fixes are a pain but so satisfying when they're done.

Trying to see in low vis while keeping hold of your tools, man that's a nightmare. @ray_martinez82 really hit the nail on the head with that. But finishing it alone, idk, it just feels so good.
