Ken
Is that a rebreather?
This picture of the IMAX underwater photographers we had on board filming the IMAX Underwater 3D movie. very interesting working and diving with them.
They had all the toys.

Yes, it's just about all I use anymore, I have different ones for different types of diving. the one in my photo is like the yellow one in your photo, it's called an Inspiration and can give up to 10 hours of air. They are all computer controlled.

Wow 10 hours! At best I'd do an hour and 15 on a 80 Aluminum Tank down off Annacapa Island! Those rebreathers back in the 60's were always great in the james bond films, where they cut the hose and air went everywhere, the bad guys looked like they couldn't breath, when all that was really going on was exhaust bubbles flowing out! Didn't know you dived Ken! Is that a dry suit too?Last edited by stovens; 12-23-2008 at 10:42 AM.

Ken, diving in tropical waters seems to me like an ideal vacation. But for me those waters are a minimun of 1200 miles away. So for my holidays I plan on feasting on some terrific food, indulging in some strong spirits and putting my butt in a recliner next to a roaring fireplace. Especially since it will be about 17 degrees outside.
Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday!!Bob

I think he's diving in So. Cal off the islands? I see kelp. Where there's kelp there is cold murky water! And abalone! And The Garibaldi .

For me, I am taking off 12/24 through 1/4 to get projects done in the house before the little Mrs shoots me.
Too many projects, so little time. LOL
