Where can I find the inherent buoyancy numbers for my SeaQuest Pro QD+ BC? I'd like to see how much weight I will be able to drop when I move to a BP/W due to the lack of plastic and foam and such.

thanks!
 
I expect you could do what's done with wetsuits . . .
1. remove all air
2. place on surface of water
3. add weights on top, one by one, until it stops floating
Might be just a couple of pounds, might be zilch, depending on the make and model.
