Sometimes the number of dives doesn't mean much no matter what the number is. If you've got 100 dives and they're all 6 feet deep about all I can assume is you've probably got good buoyancy. If your dives are in the Ocean and all below 100 feet I can draw a much different conclusion.

If they're all low vis, or good vis, you get the point. A number doesn't really indicate how you will do in a different environment. Obviously to an extent that's not accurate, a guy with 1000 dives will probably do fine with low vis environment.

I kind of think the number of hours you have might be a better scale to rate divers on.
