Hi all...

Not a cave/tech diver or UW photographer but perhaps someday...

Anyway, I have an old 2 door hatchback car that I am ripping out the interior
of and redoing...

The cars old style used space very inefficiently and there wasn't a 
flat/level
spot in the darn thing...

So, I am taking out the interior stuff and the back seat since I have never
had more than 1 passenger anyway....and I am going to put in flat hinged
decking that will be much more condusive to storing things under and on top
off....

In the process it occurred to me that it would be better for me to get
critical dimensions of some gear that I might acquire in the future so if I
do get em they will fit the new setup without any further mods...

So, first manifolded doubles....What is the MAXIMUM thickess,width, and
height of a doubles set up? and the maximum of each dimension does not have
to come from any one particular setup.....in other words...what is the
"fattest" tank(s) I'd find? the tallest? the widest?....and this is with the
iso manifold attached....

Next big item would be a scooter....If I ended up with one of those it would
probably be a Gavin type used by the DIR/WKPPP crowd.....those dimensions?

And finally camera gear....there is going to be a fair bit of shallow storage
space under the decking but above the the rear gas tank area......so what is
the height of a Nikonos body sitting on a  table pointing forward? What is
the max diameter of an UW flash that UW photographers typically use?

thanks for any input!


Bill
