  Victim1 and Victim2 were both wearing dark colored neoprene wet suits (camouflage and black / blue.)  Victim1 and Victim2 were both utilizing masks and snorkels so they could keep their heads down and still be able to see and breathe while swimming and spear fishing below the surface of the water.  Victim1 had his head down trying to untangle his leash line on his pole spear.  
  
  Both Swimmers (divers) were not displaying a divers down flag nor was there one in the vicinity.  ;
