          Glenn,

          I know i'm butting into a conversation that already in
          progress, but...

          One option is to better protect your single bag from
          puncture. After seeing Georges video, I decided to not
          double up (I also have the DUI crushed neoprene), but just
          line the inside of the outer bag with some heavy duty inner
          tubing (auto).  I am a also a wreck diver, and was also
          concerned about punctures (had one straight thru the
          front and back on one side last year). So far, the idea
          works great, no extra drag/hoses/etc and MUCH better
          protection than the Diverite bag had before.  After double
          tie-wrapping the spots where corrugated inflation hose
          meets the bag and at the inflator, I feel pretty comfortable
          with this setup.  No muss, no fuss......But I must admit, I
          have not yet dealt with the surface burping and comfort
          issue should the single bag somehow fail.

          Just my opinion

          Pat Moran
