Jim if you expect any of us to suck on or whisper in your ear you are dreaming.
I know what happens at Joe's stays at Joe's but.... NOT!

Polly ... I just found this. Here is the gear rack from Blue Springs that I think you're talking about.

Bluewater quarry in B'ham has some nice equipment racks. I don't have any pics of them but maybe somebody does.

They are I'm guessing a 6' by 6' platform with decking on top of them. That way 4 people can gear up, one on each side. They are I'm guessing about waist high. In the center of them is a circle hole so you can stick a large umbrella in the hole for shade. They are pretty nice as you can use them as a picnic table between dives, sit on them, shove stuff under them to get it out of the way (like spare tanks, etc).

anyone got pics of these?

Found them on their website. One in the upper right corner seems to be the best

Sorry, it looks like I posted the wrong type of rack. I thought you were looking for a drying rack. Doh!

Ok... good find. (their website generally sucks for information so I never go to it).


They have two types of racks in this picture

1.) In the upper left part of pic is the lower table type gear platform that I was talking about above.
2.) In the right side of pic is a rack that is higher up and more at upper body level.

The nice thing about the gear platforms is all the extra room you've got and much more multi purpose.

Note though, at Bluewater all of this is subject to change as they have bull-dozed their building (seen in pic) and are building a new one that is a geodesic dome with a climbing wall inside, coffee shop, etc.)

Of all the racks I have used, I have to say the one thing I wish they would add that no where seems to, is a little ledge to the side where you can safely sit your mask while you are getting into our out of your gear without fear of someone setting their tank on top.

Perhaps.... but one day someone will say, "didn't Mitten posts some cool pics of a drying rack once? Anyone know where they are?"
