Nice shot.

Which helmet are you wearing?


Here is a link with some shots of our most recent get together with the hard hat guys of Northeast Diving Equipment Group (NEDEG) and the National Association of Vintage Equipment Divers (NAVED).

I got to dive a Navy Mk-V again. As always we had a great time.

Cogno Luis! Great photos!

I was wearing a 3 bolt russian jake. I proudly own a 6 bolt admiralty pattern Siebe Gorman, but I have not dived with it yet.

I had no idea about NAVED. I will dive (not surf) your web, inmediately. Gracias.

P.S. No puedo escribir "cogno" como Dios manda. ¿Lo siento!

Hola Buzo

The year before, we did have a three bolt Russian helmet at the vintage dive gathering in Brownstone Quarry, Connecticut. The owner modified the suit with a waterproof zipper for easier entry. I didn't have a chance to dive it, but it looked interesting.


We have a number of NAVED members that post regularly here. We also have two other message boards: VintageDoubleHose.com and VintageScubaSupply.com

NAVED is hosted under VintageDoubleHose.com web site.

We have several vintage equipment gatherings throughout the US during the year. The next one will be in the Bahamas (at UNEXSO), the first week in April of 2009.


I am glad to see more Spanish vintage equipment divers around here. We do have a couple of members at VDH with whom I communicate.

Talking of Spanish, I just got my first Nemrod, Snark III. I hope to dive it next summer after I rebuild it. I would like to get a diagram for it, but I haven't even a chance to look for it.

These 3 bolts are indeed difficult to get into. I am glad I am not too fat!

I guess Enrique D is one of them.

Great regulator. I also have one I got from the Navy. They are very reliable and sturdy.
