Jim, your lack of experience and time in the dive business is showing, I would say on any given weekend three day friday saturday and sunday accounting for about 70 divers or more, plus crew ( 7 or 8) we will have at least one or two regulators free flows, high pressure hose burst or leaking,( had a couple of people hurt from broken hose wipping around ) burst disk leaking or blown (the empty tank syndrom) (we had 4 this year), low pressure inflator problem either button valve Oring connection, porous hose BC leaking from holes or fitting connections, Many from DiveRite BC's using plastic wire ties holding the infators hose, and valve neck orings leaking. This does not account for the problems that occur after entering the water some at the surface and a few at depth. and I know a havent mentioned them all, just a few to open your eyes. catain steve bielenda -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
