Very few dives, very well maintained and kept in storage in air-conditioned storage, great for divers who want to increase their bottom time without switching to twin set, therefore keeping their back mount BCD.

  • Inlet Thread 3/4 - 14 NPSM.

Is this tank still available?
 
Hello, my Name is Todd, I’m new to scuba board, so it won’t let me DM you until I make 5 public posts, so sorry having to communicate in posts. Im interested in the tank. Would you be able to post a couple pics of other side of tank? I live in Tampa, would you be willing to drive a little to meet and if so how far are you willing to drive?

HI Todd, no picture on the other side of the tank but you can see the half side... It is the same as all sides, no scratch, in pristine condition. As it is stated in the ad, only pick up in Homestead, FL. Tank is at my dad's house and there is no way I'm going to have him handle something this heavy, hence this is why it is still available. Plenty of takers but nobody wanted to drive to Homestead or asked me to ship cross country, ain't no way this is happening. Price is really low for a tank that is worth almost double and has not lost its value in the last 5 years.
 
I fully understand, it is a big tank, I have an OMS LP 125 that is basically the same size. I will try to figure out when I can make a run down there and see if it works for you.
 
No worries, tank is going nowhere for the time being. If you make it to Miami area for work or fun let me know...
 
Would Wednesday 3/22 at 9:30am work for you?
