Genesis tanks are steel. AL100s are bulky and heavy. You are right to go with steel.

I have a pair of Genesis HP 100s I' like to sell. They need hydro, but I guarantee they'll pass. DIN valves. About the same size as AL80s, but they are neutrally bouyant when empty. Also have a modular manifold and bands if you want to consider doubles. Steve in Crofton MD

Best bet is the Atlantis Rangers now meeting in Laurel. Meet many divers and arrange local quarry and beach trips. Club sponsors boat trips out of OC, Hatteras, NJ, Myrtle Beach SC, Florida, NY, etc. See www.atlantisrangers.org

I don't think beach in MD dives are worth the effort - low viz, lots of turbulence and nothing but sand. There are some near shore wrecks off Delaware but due to poor viz. you need a GPS and depth finder to loacte them. Better to dive them from a boat. I have done some shallow shore dives in...

A few years ago I participated in an underwater survey of the harbour area of New Castle. Depths 20 to 50 feet. Current was never zero, viz was always zero, and I ofen came up with an oil slick on my mask. By feeling arround, we were able to locate and map some old piers and I found a pile of...
