My comms box went full boat anchor last week off Port Canaveral

I was doing a hull inspection on a 90 foot catamaran, 40 feet down, when my through-water comms just started buzzing static mid-word. Tried the backup unit, dead battery, the spare was left on the truck (my fault, classic move). I switched to hand signals with the tender for the last 20 minutes, felt like I was back in training school. Anyone else ever have a coms failure and have to bust out the old arm waving routine?

Laughing at the mental image of you flailing around down there like a confused mime while the fish judge your performance. At least you got a workout in, silver lining and all that.
