Dennis,

Take your pick.  The MK VI is a good scooter, might be better/cheaper
to fix them up rather than buy new scooters.

The Zepps are available either in a 100 meter or a 180 meter version.
They are a rugged, reliable unit, and I can highly recommend them, but
am not sure if they are "better" than a MK VI in good condition.  

One advantage of the Zepp over the MK VI is that the Zepp with full
payload of batteries can be neutral as configured.  The MK VI with
full payload of batteries needs bouyancy tubes to make it neutral.

I know that I would probably set my scooter up to be slightly positive
so that I would have to chase it shallower rather than chase a sinking
scooter deeper in the kind of dives you have planned.

Congrats on the NG contract.
