Subject: Re: OMS, Faber, or Pst Doubles?

I have PST 104's and love them.  The boyancy characteristics are great, they
hold a ton of gas, and they are just all round pretty sexy tanks.  Fabers
aren't hot dipped galvanized like PST and the finish doesn't seem to last as
long.  

I also like my double 80's, although they are admittedly harder tanks to dive
than my 104's.  The trim just doesn't come quite as easily.

about Faber tanks, but I'm open for suggestions.
