67 would hold approximately 16% less than an 80, if they are both filled to the same PSI. Time is based on consumption, only you can answer the time portion.

YEA, BUT I WAS GONNA SAY IF YOU BREATHE THE SAME AS IF YOU WOULD BREATH WITH THE 80, iT'S JUST THAT HTE 80 IS KINDA HEAVY FOR MY SCRONY BODY, 67 WAS JUST RIGHT.
 
If you can't carry an AL80 comfortably, then consider using the smaller tank.

Remember, however, that the AL80 is practically neutral once it is in the water. If you are divng off of boat, then you will only be hauling the AL80 a short distance and it may be worth the inconvenience. If you are shore diving and have long walks, then the smaller tank may make more sense.

Yes I will be doing beach and OW dives. That was my concern.
 
Check some of the steel tanks and consider that you can strip some weight if you go with steel vs. aluminum.

You could get a smallish HP steel.

BTW, nice to see another Canuck fan on the board!!!!!
