Depends on depth, gear and scooter availability. Short shallow hops (like the Hinckle) we'd swim. Deeper more gear intensive dives where swimming is not an option then spare scooters are needed. However, as we learned when we got burned a few years back, the loss of visibility which prevents...

We allow roughly 4 times (depending on volume of gear) We certainly don't plan for 4 lost scooters and RB failure on the same dive though!
