For sale is a Seaquest/Aqualung back inflate style BCD. Size XL, in excellent shape.
No tears or fraying fabric, weight pouch velcro is in great shape not worn out, holds air like new. This BC has very light use even though it's probably 20 years old, there are no signs of material degradation. It was stored indoors in a closet in a climate controlled home. Many people like these for travel.

$75 plus whatever shipping costs.
Prefer to sell locally with local pick-up but will ship CONUS if needed.

This BCD was donated to PURP. All the proceeds from this sale will go to guy game bags and urchin collection gear to be used by our volunteers for our kelp restoration efforts.
Please no haggling.
You can call me or text direct at
Seven zero seven - three one eight- two five seven seven.
email is: ericsedletzky at g mail dot com
Or you can PM me here.
I take PayPal or cash if it's local.
Thanks

I absolutely loved my Seaquest Balance but my medium was just a bit too small for me. Had it fit better, I would probably still be using it instead of switching to BP/W. It's the perfect lead-in to a BP/W from a BCD and has all the dump valve pulls in just the right places.
 
I've dived a Seaquest Balance BCD for over 20 years, it's a great BCD. When I put on the pounds, I was at about 240, 6'1 and the XL fit me perfectly. Then I dropped to about 220 lbs and switched to a large, and now I'm about 195 lbs and the M-L fits me perfectly.

The only drawbacks to this BCD as per my own experience is the zipper on the single pocket tends to stick if it's not kept well lubricated and it's difficult or impossible to close it at depth if it's open all the way, and I removed the built in backup AirSource regulator because it tended to freeflow even with servicing (although it appears this one for sale here has the standard inflator so not an issue).
