Wanted At-Pak BCD

[Manuel B]

I am searching for an At-Pak, yes I know, they are ancient, but I like them. Since Sea-D-Sea in Redondo Beach closed down I have not been able to find a source, or Barry Friedman, the owner. A company in SoCal was selling them new on ebay, but I no longer see that company in Google searches, I thought it was Divetec ? even parts would be welcome. Dig that old dusty relic out of the garage and send me a note or call me. Thanks, Manuel 256-442-4905 barje@bellsouth.net

I doubt this is of much help but it's At-Pac and DiveTek - or maybe Dive Tek.

Wow, you've even got the regs.

Manuel, I just had a thought - contact Paul (mgr) at ScubaPro's of Arizona - at his last shop they used At-Pac's for training BC's maybe as recently as a decade ago or less - so he might still have sources. Scuba Professionals of Arizona, Dive Shop Phoenix, Peoria

I dont get the appeal does that case enclose the wing and tank or is it open on the back?

It encloses the tank(s) air bladder and the weights are also integrated in the center section with an emergency dump flap at the bottom.

Yes, that's the critter. The yellow fairing is mine, but the working parts were my ex's and it's too small to fit, and she quit years ago so all the rubber bits are falling apart, Barry Friedman was replacing the hoses with modern ones, and making upgrades to some other items.

Sadly not mine, Googled the image. I haven't seen one of these forever.
