I just don't log dives
I have an old Dacor steel 72 and I can't seem to find the specs for it - specifically buoyancy. I don't dive this tank very often and I usually dive a Faber LP 95 so I want to adjust my weight when switching to the 72.

The attached link and others don't have a steel 72 with a 2200 service pressure. Any ideas?

Thanks, FM

You can wear about 4 lbs less than you do with an aluminum 80... if that helps...
