Hey everyone. The wife and I recently spent two weeks in Hawaii where we did our first open water dives on Oahu, Maui and BI. And now we're hooked. We rented all the gear at the time (except the snorkel sets we bought for the certification classes). Now I'm looking to buy the rest of our gear.
I'm still a noob doing a lot of reading and researching, but here is a list of gear I plan to buy. I did a search for the Cressi MC5 regulator on this board but couldn't find too many opinions on it, except a recall back in 2009. Any thoughts? There's a package deal where all of the items below can be had for $710 versus $973 individually. I thought that was a pretty damn good deal. I also plan to purchase a Hollis DG03, but that's not part of the package deal.
