Well said. Good instructors need to be paid well. To stir the pot: What if instructors were licensed? And, btw air is waaaaay too.cheap. Cost of comp, oil, filters, labor. Most aint got a clue. Cya

Great Gun and should be able to be rebuilt. Try spearfishingworld.com -Bill

How much are you willing to pay?

Turret up = easier to reach hoses. Best for newbs. Turret down = lower profile. Neither is wrong, or right.

Glad to hear about your services.

Yes, replace those O2 cells once a year as recommended. The hose was "jury rigged." On a rebreather you can never be too careful. Know your PO2. Not followed. Complacency kills. Not a factory crimp on the hose. Sad.

Not really. What kind of shape was he in? Excellent with no damage to the heart muscle? I know people that have had Four Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts(CABG) and were cleared to dive by their surgeon because there "was no damage to their heart muscle."

It's not.

You will not look the same years from now. Sad, but true. Carry your driver's license with you or passport.

Mega Ditto's. CYA there!!!

Looks like the other agencies need to gear up for massive crossovers. Just sayin

Was any paperwork found with regard to pre-dive checks? "Solo Certified" and "Re-breather" don't equal Solo Rebreather certified. Any info on type of unit? RIP Brother.

Where is the best place to get some old Doxa's restored? I have 2 from the early 70's, a black and a silver:)

Short answer is "should be." A hard and fast rule by many is 1-89 as a fill/no fill. Many stores will not fill a cylinder >20 years old. If yours pass visual and eddy current it probably is O.K. PSI/PCI, the experts say they are good if given the thorough visual/eddy current every year...

Luxfer phased out the bad aluminum alloy late '88. Catalina never used it. So, a hard/fast rule you could use is not to use a cylinder with an original hydro older that 1-89. -Bill PSI #307

I talked to a NAUI sales rep about this very issue years ago. I'm sure it was relayed up the chain of command. Obviously the powers do not want it to be. -Bill NAUI 5709L CD

O2 cell? Inquiring minds want to know. Owners NEED to know;) -Bill Childers R.N. NAUI 5709L CD/IANTD 1982
