Changes that Senior divers make?

Thank you, the hunt is on!

My cart has a weight limit of 180-200lbs. Others have limits as low as 100-150lbs. Depends on what you’re hauling and how much. With 2xLP85s and an AL40, I needed the higher weight limit.

Excellent point. Another option for the heavy loads is a hand truck with a ratchet strap for tanks. My buddy (using a handtruck) snickered when I pulled the handle off my cheapo wagon going up a hill, but I've had no problems since I switched. That thing is literally bulletproof.

The hand truck sucks for other gear. I can easily move other gear bags and such in my cart. Plus I also use it for groceries, hauling trash to the dumpster in my complex, etc.

Peter Sellers? The Pink Panther?

Cato was his house-man who would lie in wait and surprise attack him.

Are you saying we need a Scuba Sherpa?

Yes. As much as I am all about being self-supporting that's exactly why I had kids.

My buddies are very good about helping. If they offer, I help. Sometimes my knees/sciatica are bothering me enough at the end of a diving day that I’ll ask for my tanks to be rolled back to my SUV. Just can’t get up that slope from the water line.
