Representing the scenario as an equation, the position of the scuba diver relative to the surface of the ocean is 20 feets.

(x - 6) + 2(x - 6) = 42

x - 6 + 2x - 12 = 42

3x - 18 = 42

3x = 42 + 18

3x = 60

x = 60 / 3

x = 20

Hence, the position of the scuba diver relative to gvd surface of the ocean is 20 feets.
