Boston Breakwater
"Outlaw." Solo Diver
Hello. I was curious about other members choice of S.C.U.B.A. equipment brand, and how you made that decision.
When I got certified in 1999 I chose U.S. Divers gear. (Before they dropped that name.) I grew up watching Jacques Cousteau in the 70's. It piqued my curiosity, and I loved the thought of breathing underwater, along with my love for animals. I think it was also the history of the Aqua-Lung, and the fact that the military was using a lot of this gear.....and still do.
I bought (1) U.S, Divers Seamaster B.C. along with (2) Impulse regulators in 1999.( One for Cold Water.)
I serviced, and maintained my own gear, it lasted 18 years. When, it came time to replace my gear, I chose Apeks........solely for the quality, and reputation.
Cheers.
