Is that about 20 dives a year?

Let's say £20 each time you hire kit in the UK (£100) and perhaps another £75 for hire on holiday. Does that sound about right? (I'm just guessing)

So hire costs £175 pa.

Sounds a lot cheaper than buying.

But might you start diving more as time goes on? Then you need to work out how much you would have saved by not hiring.

And the advantage of diving with your own kit - that you can trust and are used to etc.

A difficult one to work out. Hope these ramblings help a bit.
