This is not accurate. There are analyzers on each boat and at the fill station. It's surprising that this diver never saw that.

My friend asked about analyzing her tank and people just shrugged their shoulders as if to say "why bother?" No one offered an analyzer.

It seems that your friend must have had an anomalous experience. Analyzers hang from the fill station near the dock, and are on every boat.

You are correct, but each day we'd have to ask for the analyzer and they'd have to search for it...not what one would expect if everyone is diving Nitrox
