There was some talk of a fully-closed rebreather from Oceanic (with
associated electronics), but I didn't get any specs.  Supposedly, it would
be analagous to the Cis-Lunar Mk5 rebreathers (of which 25 will be
manufactured this year for sale), and the Oceanic unit was said to run
about $12,000.  I THINK (not certain) that Oceanic was involved with the
Prism semi-closed unit used by Rob Palmer.  Apparently, this one will be
for sale soon at around $5000. m That's all I know off the top of my head
- there's more infor in the latest AquaCorps, "C2".

Aloha,

Rich
