Of Ships And Sea Text
This spell increases the recipient's resistance to the crushing force of water pressure, allowing him to function at greater depths underwater. The spell's recipient can safely dive to twice his normal depth.
For example, an unassisted human can normally withstand the effects of pressure to a maximum depth of 400 feet underwater. A human protected by this spell could safely dive to a depth of 800 feet. Note that this spell actually doubles the recipient's basic depth unit (see page 76).
The material component of this spell is the caster's holy symbol.
