The ocean is my swimming pool.

While diving yesterday I had an epiphany. Why not turn the ocean into my swimming pool? I could measure out a pool length and have two dive floats tethered at each end to something I rig up on the bottom. Then I could line up a few painted rocks on the bottom between the floats as my "lane line".
This time of the year there is not a whole lot to see where I dive, so why not do dynamics to burn up calories, increase your cardio ability, and improve your form? With the roomy lanes in the ocean, I don't have to worry about slicing someone with my monofin like I do when I'm in a pool. The viz is good now, so I could follow the "lap line" from the surface as well as along the bottom. And with the jelly fish gone for the winter, I can put my head down and kick my heart out without fear of plowing into one of them.
Any one else have their own salt water pool?
