Not a Sea-Hunter but love the gear

[novicediver]

Ok, I just found this thread and love it. I grew up watching "Flipper", solely for the underwater scenes and I can't remember if they dove double hose or not. I do remember the gear being those yellow tanks, oval, masks, no BC or wet suit. So now that got me thinking (dangerous thing), where do I look to find vintage or vintage style gear. Is there any kind of resurgance where manufacturers will build more or do I have to look on ebay and then try to find someone to service them? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, that helps a lot. I must say I like the whole minimalist style of the gear and the emphasis on swimming and weighting skills. Diving the way it was meant to be!
