Yeh, It was kinda weird how it all went down.
I been talking about the Kiss for about a year, and that was the direction I wanted to go. I started diving the Dolphin again, started buying tanks etc, went diving the other day and couldn't believe how much I missed diving Rb's.
I sold the Dolphin, and between that, and the tanks etc, I got close to $3k.
Then came along a brand new Sport Kiss on the forms on here, from Jill, who was local, and I said to myself, $3,800.00 , and shes including the tanks, thats a hell of a deal, and its new ! Plus she was local, and met me half way, so I didn't have to mess with shipping it etc, and not knowing what I was really getting before it arrived.
I was going to go back to open circuit, sell the Dolphin, and save little more, and in about 6 months make the plunge, and decided to do it now, when i saw her selling a brand new Sport Kiss.
Yeah, i need to pay for training, and buy a B/P and wing, so theres little more cost there, but then I'm hopefully done for a while, and my next upgrade possibly down the road will be something like a Optima, which is also what I wanted.
If I didn't spend so much on my DSLR camera set up a couple of months back, I would have went with the Optima.
I thought the SK would be a great way to get into recreational diving with a CCR re breather, and I could start shooting pics again, once I feel comfortable using the SK.
I been bouncing back and forth for the past several years between O/C and the Dolphin, and hopefully the mCCR isn't to task loading on me, with carrying around the camera, and it works out. I'm really looking forward to the interaction with the fish again, and diving CCR , as opposed to SCR, I'm sure it will be really different UW.
