Hi Joe,
I think that Water Ranch might do it. I know that they do CCR training for the revo. You can try giving them a call. You can go to their website here: Smile, Open Wide, and Eat Life Whole® | Water Ranch® You can also check out SDTechDiving. It is another forum where most of the guys are rebreather divers. They should be able to point you in the right direction.
HTH,
Dane

Let me know what you find out. I have been looking at the Dolphin as a first step into a rebreather. It will still be some time before I make the leap but it is good to know who works on them in the area.

Dane,
I spoke with Robin, the resident Dolphin expert at Water Ranch. They are certified to service and repair the Dolphin, as well as other rebreathers and provide training courses. They can provide training with the following agencies: TDI, ANDI, IANTD and others.
Thanks
Joe

Just some information as a RB instructor - the Atlantis/Dolphin was/is a entry-level rebreather from a decade ago. That being said it is an older design which really doesn't save the diver much in the way of total weight, added bottom time, or swimming efficacy vs. a simple set of doubles.
A simple search on Rebreather World should reveal threads about folks migrating from the Dolphin to CCR, or MCCR. The Sport Kiss is an almost ideal and cost competitive entry-level MCCR (mechanical closed circuit rebreather) that is smaller than the Dolphin, increased bottom time as you have full control over your PO2 and doesn't gurgle bubbles like SCR's. That being said, if your peruse Ebay you can often find divers unloading their Dolphin SCR's quite regularly.
