  I paid Cobb the same thing he had into it, 2500 + the cost of the battery 
and charger. It was the only one you actually tested and was the bait to 
get the others to buy. No other scooter worked 100% after that one.

what you said below......

clutches that I thought I would never get rid of until you put 50 emails out
about it,

Notice the word "HAD" , meaning they were now gone due to me letting 
everyone know you had put the plastic ones in the scooters they purchased 
from you and you finally got rid of them.

I guess others dives aren't very important to you as long as you get the 
cash to support your dives.

A Gavin is a Gavin each scooter is subject to the quality that goes with 
the name, it should make no difference which one or where you use it.

No way, That would kinda be like selling a "spare parts" kit for a new 
scooter that is suppose to work when you get it.

One thing is for sure, I do maybe 10 times more dives a year than you, 
deeper and further off shore. This alone makes my diving more challenging 
than yours. If something happens to ME, then I can accept that. If 
something happens to someone else during those dives, then the divers did 
something wrong or were not following the rules for diving. One thing about 
it, I will not try to hide it like others.

There are always fools who do stupid stuff, just look at the moron who got 
bent on the big wreck dive you always use to pump up the wannabees. Only a 
fool will ride his scooter straight up from 160ft after setting there for 5 
mins. Then not tell anyone for 24hrs later until he can't walk.
