I'll admit I was never into cold water diving, so if 'cream puff' diving is referencing warm water/coral reef diving, then I'd lose about 99% of my diving motivation if I couldn't do 'cream puff' diving. Local diving in north central Texas is lake/quarry diving....YUCK other than to stay in...

The Woke West is actively trying to destroy it's own oil industry and oil consumption as well as the rest of the world's oil industry and consumption, the rest of the world is doing the opposite.

Curious, is there a terminal illness involved or a lucky trust fund baby with essentially unlimited funds available ? You might end up living to 95 years old hitting up Scubaboard with your 'gofundme' account if you're not careful. I expect to retire in not more than about 4 more years, I...

OMG! Airplanes powered by LITHIUM batteries !!! Let's bring back the Hindenburg while we're at it!

I don't see any realistic replacement for fossil fuels with respect to aircraft, we will never see nuclear/wind/solar/battery powered commercial aircraft, although we do have bio-fuels available, which still generate carbon anyway. Some predict we will convert to a social score/carbon...

It may be a case of the 'tourist boat' having stumbled across a shore dive gone wrong and the body floated out where it was finally accidentally discovered.

Frank is quite correct, we are NOT talking about "a few mosquitos", more like 'Plagues of Egypt' level mosquitos, not to mention all the horrific tropical diseases they carry!

I believe leisurepro.com buys gear if you are interested in selling, may be easier/more trustworthy than risking E Bay.

If you don't waste money on proper insurance that frees up money for funding premium live aboard trips and I guess it's a free country if all the GFM folks want to help pay for someone elses nice vacations or business trips.

the wrist method is very reliable/accessible...the sea bottom is littered with items where clips didn't exactly work out.

That's standard operating procedure in the TX Flower Gardens, home of 'sporty seas'.

Hi folks, so far I've had a few nibbles and some serious sounding inquiries, so if you are serious please let me know ASAP. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, so I'm leaning towards those who can get here first. I don't want to get 'stood up' holding out for the more vague future...

Hi, I appreciate the suggestion but I'd prefer to try to sell locally first if possible, but I'll keep you in mind as 'plan B' if needed.

85's LP Fabers/OMS DIN valves/manifolds/bands, + rated original hydro manufacture date 09/02 / last hydro date: 07/14 (still + rated) out of current hydro / stored with air color: tan grayish paint (standard OMS factory color) (no rust) I'm the original retail owner/purchased new at LDS, early...

They ARE in good shape, no hurricane damage or anything. :)

Looking to clear out some garage space, thinning out the herd of surplus tanks. They need a new home. Seeking local buyers, Dallas/Ft. Worth Texas metroplex (not interested in shipping, hence prefer local buyers). Willing to consider reasonable offers. Thank you for your interest.

I get your points, but for the record Faber does still currently make and sell PAINTED tanks: (for example) Faber High Pressure Steel Tank ...so Faber hasn't 'switched' from painted to galvanized, they 'added' galavanized as another option.

Thanks for the reference point, maybe my market will be those who simply can't cough up the $$$ for new ones, not everyone can afford a new car either, regardless of 0% financing on the new cars.

I'm open to reason on my pricing, thanks for the perspective.

Ok then , my $500 initial pricing is 1/2 the new price = 50% value , admittedly mine are out of hydro though. So far I've received 2 SB member inquiries, so I'll see how those develop, see what offers/counter offers I get and move forward accordingly.
