> RICH PYLE/BILL STONE CIS-LUNAR MK.5 WORKSHOP > > Following these 2 formal talks there were 2 parallel workshops on Decompression > Software and the Cis-Lunar Mk.5 rebreather. I attended the rebreather session. You must have needed a nap by then, eh? They've been holding these discussions about the CIS Lunar unit longer than they've been diving. It's going to ship anytime now. At least that's what they've been saying for the past 4 plus years. 6 months late, ok. 1 year late, hum? 4 years late - laughingstock. > Rich Pyle gave a rundown on the functionality of the Cis-Lunar Mk.5 unit, the > first one to be seen in the UK. Rich is a nice guy and since he dives a free rebreather he cannot do anything but talk nicely about them but he is not doing any 2-3 hour bottom times at serious depth with this toy. > The Mk.5 sells for $15,000 US. Training courses will initially only be held in > the USA and are an additional expense. This is a bit misleading. It is supposed to cost $15,000 US when it ships, however, by the time it actually ships, $15,000 US will probably buy you a loaf of bread. Then there's Stonehead - a legend in his own mind. I hear he's going for the Lockwood record this time around, but he's out to do it all on one dive. <K> _____________________________________________________________________ Sent by RocketMail.
