CCR support....?

[netmage]

Any CCR support during the invasion...? Not sure what the O2 & compressor situation is with ops on the island... Last time I went, everyone went to a single source for Nitrox, not even sure ops had their own compressors.

Must haves would be access to O2 and air fills for ccr bottles, some sort of tank for bailout. Sorb would be nice, but can bring my own if needed.

Hi Tim
I have emailed the owner of dive paradise with your question and will post the response as soon I get it.

Hello Kitty,

Cozumel Dive Trips, Technical Diving, Training Classes, Recreational Diving in Cozumel Mexico was mentioned over on RBW. Let us know how everything goes, I've thought about taking my rebreather to Coz. but have been reluctant.

I am pasting the response from Dive Paradise. It sounds like it's just a matter of logistics.

Hi Dennis

Meridiano 87 is the primary source of gas (for breathing) in Cozumel. I am assured they can fill any bottles to any specifications. They have both air and oxygen. We are advised that the scrubbing compounds are in limited supply, and that people should bring their own, as well as the appropriate adaptors for their bottles.

As far as I know (and have been able to have filled for deco recently), Meridiano only fills up to 80%. There are a few tech outfits on the island that may be able to help get you 100%, He and sorb. One person who could give you the definitive answers is German Yanez at: Yucatech Expeditions. Cozumel, Mexico. Cenote, Cave, Cavern and Technical Diving Courses and Tours.
