There is nothing wrong with a Y or H valve setup and everything to recommend it. You can take Intro to Cave in an H valve configuration. To my knowledge there has never been a cave fatality due to that configuration. If you want double dip tubes you can find that in an old Beauchat Y valve.

It's incredibly dangerous. The last time a Moray popped out of the coral next to my wife she teleported right through me to the other side. Any slip up and she would have materialized in my space resulting in a nuclear explosion.

The question- are my hoses possibly damaged by pulling on them. The answer- possibly. If you are uncomfortable with your assessment...replace them for peace if mind. All the rest of this thread is crap.

You need a pair of dikes.

I keep it clipped to my chest and use it for inflating my smb. Much more convenient than pulling off my wing inflator hose.

Is this code for "i need to hide my stash"?

It is called white rust if it is soft and somewhat waxy. It is a failure of the zinc surface to passivate properly. It should be removed with a relatively soft brush and then the surface allowed to passivate again. It is helpful if the water has a pH between 7 and 8.2. When chromate washes...

Dead bodies are just... Dead. Previous owners have moved on. Don't get so worked up.

Oriskany? Most local shops will likely give you a generous fill on any steel tank. Find out the brand of tank so you can get the weighting right. You don't want to punch a hole through the urchins and the flight deck like Wiley Coyote.
