CUMMING, Ga. — Dive teams that run search and recovery missions in Lake Lanier communicate with each other through a series of tugs on the rope that tethers them.
Tender to diver:
1 tug – Are you okay?
2 tugs – Change direction
3 tugs – Come to surface
4 tugs – Stay down
Diver to tender:
1 tug – I’m okay
2 tugs – Give me slack in the rope
3 tugs – I found something
4 tugs – I’m in trouble
