Dear Scott, you mean you dont have many sets of exactly the same gear? What
happens on expeditins when your suit tears are you gonna wait to patch it or
are you gonna throw it back in the bag take out another and deal with the
repair later.

How bout when waiting to enter a well maintained regulator blows a hose
because of a manufacturing defect -- are you going to hold up to swap the
hose or go in the box and put on a full new rig?

If you are gonna do this kind of diving you MUST invest in many sets of gear
if not just dont do it.
