    Are the Malotte/Dolphin Scout Dive Kayak/Boards any good?

    I saw an ad on Craigslist for this kayak for $100. Are these any good for diving? I have a 9.5 foot inflatable but this looks cooler. I heard these fiberglass kayaks are pretty tough.

    Just pick up another 72 but might not keep it.

    Healthways, initial hydro date 3♦66+. No other hydro stamp. Original harness and straps. No exterior rust, no corrosion, original stickers, and no rot on the straps! The o-ring is still soft and the straps are supple. Seller said he travelled with the tank; it was stored in a small wooden crate...

    Hydro RIN ID marking is a "?"

    Has anyone seen a RIN hydro ID as a "?" ? I just got this PST Steel 72 and that's the first thing I noticed. DOT 3AA 2250 4@77+ 3?84 I'm not worried about it passing hydro or vis but that RIN has me wondering.

    Impossible to read tank markings - PST HP100

    I just picked up two PST HP100 3500psi. Both are painted over the galvanized surface - there's paint over the past hydro's. One still has paint and is legible, the other one ... :facepalm: If I take the paint off using a water based paint remover, which is supposedly safer for the finish and...

    IS/WAS this a J Valve?

    This Sherwood Valve is on my PST 72. Is it missing the reserve lever? The Left port looks like hex fitting and not threaded but there's some corrosion gunk in it so it's hard to tell. The tank was full when I bought it.

    Hollis Yoke to DIN - will it need to be serviced after conversion

    The Hollis regs are already at the shop getting serviced. If I change the Hollis DC3 to a DIN using the conversion kit, does it need to be re-serviced? I'm converting to DIN because I just got a stupendous deal ($50) on a PST HP 100CF/13L 3500 tank with a Thermo DIN valve, still in hydro! My...

    Glue/Adhesives for drysuits

    I've got a mix of components for replacing neck and wrist seals, permanent cuffs, dry gloves, and various repair/mods. I was planning to install the SiTech permanent wrist seals and neck seal, recycle some DUI zipseals, and probably install a pee valve later this season. When it comes to glues...

    BRIS 11' inflatable cat for diving

    I'm considering an inflatable mini cat for diving in California (Norcal). I've seen vids where freedivers flop aboard like a seal bc of the open bow design. It should work fine for all diving. I have a 10' SIB with a 86lb thrust electric trolling motor for fishing but I haven't tried that in...

    Zip seal cuff tear - repairable or replace it?

    Just got a used (built 9/2004) DUI CLX 450. It has the Gen1 Zip Seals and I was inspecting the suit this morning. The neck collar seems good. The wrist cuff, one of them has a small split on the outside. I guess this is to be expected for a 15 year old suit plus storage technique. Something was...

    Transderm Scop Patch - anything better?

    I get seasick, so I use the Transderm Scop (scopolamine). Normally, it works. I've been on 8-10ft choppy water and I'm fine (minus the cotton mouth). This time, I wasn't. I put it behind my ear a day before the dive in Cabo San Lucas. The air temp was 75 F, water temp 73 F. Three foot waves at...

    Apollo drysuit - boot deteriorating

    Does anyone else dive with an Apollo drysuit? My boots are falling apart and the kneepad is starting to go. I contacted the listed repair store in Seattle, WA, just waiting to see if they can fix it. I was using some adhesive to try to keep the bit together and just ordered some more drysuit...

    SPG face is rotating. What to do with it now?

    I bought that Juergensen Marine PSI/BAR SPG about 5 years ago from Dive Addicts. Well, the gauge face just pop off and rotating inside under the glass. It rotated to a position where a 3000psi tank reads only 2000psi. I was in Roatan at the time but luckily, the boat at a spare reg for me to...

    What to do with a Norris SP6688?

    I just picked up an older AL tank (free on Craigslist - I wanted the tank harness). The numbers indicate it's a Norris aluminium. DOT-SP6688-3000. HY-8323. 10 ◊ 73. Rehydro'd 8 89 and on the opposite side BX 6 A 83 (re hydro). If I took it in for a Hydrostatic test, I'd probably be charged for...

    Need help unscrewing the lens cap off my UK C4 light

    It won't budge. It still works, the light is strong. I haven't taken the light into the water in years, so I doubt it's salt locking up the threads. I lubed the gasket with grease before screwing down the lens but now it won't come off. Things I've tried. Brute force using hands, feet, and...

    J Valves

    I just saw these tanks on CL in SF Bay Area. I asked the Seller about the valves and asked him to send pics. I've seen the Sportsway, but never the Voit or US Diver before. Kind of cool.

    Sportsways SPG - still usable? serviceable?
