Well i received an unexpected but pleasant surprise the other day from my wife. We are adding to our family once again. This will be our fourth and last. As it is, its hard to dive with 3 young ones and with a fourth its gonna be really hard. I have decided to sell my gear so we can do some home remodeling for the future little tike. All of my gear has been very well maintained and just recently bought a bunch of new gear along with a very nice digital camera used one time. I am posting all my gear on here and decostop before going to ebay. Prices are negotiable but i will not sell it for next to nothing!! Buyers to pay all shipping costs. I am located in central California about 1.5hr from fresno or morro bay so feel free to inspect or see the gear in person if you can make it my way. If not pm me or email me at larryb@postmark.net for pictures.

Everything above has been sold except for the double tanks. Price reduced to 700.00 for the tanks.
Hey Larry...
Thanks for meeting me to transfer the tanks today. I appreciate you and the others making the drive. Cayucos was beautiful, and we couldn't have asked for much better weather.

Glad you could make it. It was definitely a nice day. After we left Cayucos we stopped by morro bay and there was a guy on the beach playing around with a motorized paraglider. It was the first time i had ever seen a motorized one. It was really cool to watch him cruise around.

Are you talking about the glider that has a sitting pilot, with a VW engine or something similar powering the prop?

Quite a bit of fun!
Nope, it looks like a parachute. They are at morro bay all the time catching the air off of the dunes and hover in the air. This particular guy had some sort of engine strapped to his back with a large prop. He gets his parachute thing up in the air above him and guns the motor and up he went. I still have no idea how they steer those things but he cruised up and down the beach at around 100ft i would guess.
