Question Converting a gift to a travel BP/W for Warm water destinations

[rfwoodvt]

Not exactly what I'm looking for, but it can certainly work:

Sunbrella Reinforcement

Another thing I’ve read on SB was that 18lb would not give enough lift to get head completely out of water and in “frisky seas” this might be less than comfortable.

Absolutely correct.

I use a 30# wing with no wetsuit, an AL80, and 4 lbs of lead --- and a 30# wing is barely adequate.

I used to dive with a wonderful Deep Sea Supply 23# wing, and I am so glad that I now have 30#.

I only need the wing at two times: At the very start of the dive, and when I'm on the surface. During the middle and end of my dives, the BC is empty and I don't need it. So what I really want is something to keep my head out of the water on the surface, at the end of the dive.

I get rid of all eyelets grommets, extra layers of fabric lumps and bumps that contribute to any tank instability

On this 18 duffy wing I think, the entire centre panel has been removed and exchanged for a piece of webbing

For complete cleanliness of my stuff

The best of the best is this also alows the wing to expand laterally to get closer to claimed lift

The entire centre panel is gorn, as well as the screw heads on my MMO, Made My Own, stabilisers

I cut the slots out of this weight pack sack, burnt the cordura with fire then ran two stitches around
when the sack was in two pieces
