At least I found it interesting. My first bcd was a Sherwood Accord. A basic wraparound style, nothing special. It served me nicely from 1998 to 2001. Then I made the switch to backplate and wings and haven't donned the Sherwood since.
What I found interesting, and perhaps some indication of the quality of the Sherwood product, came out of a discussion we had in January or February, perhaps on rec.scuba or perhaps just in a chatroom, about the airholding ability of various flotation devices.
I immediately blew up both my Sherwood and my Halcyon 27# wing. The Halcyon lost most of it's air within 24 hours. The Sherwood was still rockhard weeks later. I just now walked over to it and checked and it's still about 75% inflated. Now I have no idea what that says about Sherwood and Halcyon. I've dived the Halcyon enuf to know it holds air at least as long as I want it to, including some ocean floats awaiting pickup.
I can tell you that the Sherwood has travelled to Mexico several times, and has dived the cold Great Lakes water as well as some rather nasty quarries with nil viz and my swimming pool when I don the gear to clean the bottom occasionally. The darn thing looks as good as new, literally. Of course looks aren't as important as functionality, but the Sherwood has served me well, and without ever letting me down.
