What?! Didn't know WHO Jacques Cousteau was?! That's really not ok...

Don't worry, we gave him a good thrashing, so now he knows better

Remember this logo : started diving in Spain in 1990, many local divers used this brand, they were still manufacturing single stage + double hose regulators. Anybody knows if they're still in business ?

Nemrod ceased trading in or around 2000. The company's assets were taken over by another Spanish water sports equipment company, Safari sub, which remains in business in Alicante with a website at Artículos de Playa.

Further information in Italian and Spanish about the history of Nemrod at:

Safari Sub niega que vaya a dejar de distribuir Nemrod

The Nemrod Museum on Facebook offers many illustrations of the firm's historical diving products and is a must for anybody interested in the development of underwater gear in Spain. The owner is extremely knowledgeable about Nemrod and will usually respond within an hour or two to questions posted in English. He was most helpful when I quizzed him recently on the subject of Nemrod masks with built-in snorkels.

Wasn't Jacques Cousteau the P.T. Barnum of diving? Kill anything for a good picture?

Just getting back to this thread. Finally dug these out of the workshop. These are from my Dad. His club patch from late '60s, early 70's, a "dive" watch he made for my mom, and old dive training book from 1970.
