I'm sorry I couldn't meet you out there, Frank, but my BCD is in the shop for some repair work. Perhaps another time soon.

Ken,
That's ok, at least you didn't make the trip and *then* had a problem. I drove all the way down there and had my BC and reg slip off the table while suiting up and tore up the 1st stage threaded DIN connection. Luckily it's a easily replaceable part and my LDS has them in stock. It also looks like the tank valve has some messed up threads. Even with all that, I still got in the lake and paddled around to check out the shore areas on the airplane end of the lake. Beats work anyday . . .
Later,
Frank

Hi Frank,
...sorry to hear about your gear 'mishap'..........but glad you still managed to do some exploring, wish I'd been there, I always carry extra reg sets and tanks in the van, could have 'saved' the dive.
Good to hear you can get your 1st stage fixed....hopefully you can get the both the reg and tank valve repaired/replaced in time for 'our' June 24th Flower Gardens trip......... just let me know if you can't get a new tank valve in time to get your tank dive-ready, I can loan you a tank for the trip.
