That's pretty sad.
Shows how important it is to have a dive buddy around!

If it can happen to a diver that experienced it can happen to anyone. RIP

Terrible to hear, and so close to Christmas.

A diver died off royal beach in Mornington at the weekend aswel, did anyone hear what the circumstances were.

Yeah from what I read in the paper a solo 47-year-old scuba diver died about 11 am Saturday, was seen in trouble from shore and pulled in but couldn't be revived. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/more-n ... 6212964045

Sounds like it may have been a medical issue unrelated to diving.
