Hi Paul,

Get the older ones. The new ones seem to be a bit heavy. The older ones are just about right.

I'd go even further than that and say Avoid the new ones like the plague. Even empty they still hang low and don't float.

Get the old ones. They are a pleasure to use (I have one). The new ones are horrible heavy things.

Regards,

Mark.

I don't suppose he has any of the older ones going spare? I've heard they are very difficult to get hold of. I ended up getting a newer one.
