I don't really need any kit so I'd spend the money on holidays like Truk and Bikini, New Zealand, Barrier Reef, South Africa and the Galapagos.

Safe diving,
Steve

I'd buy another two Borii, station one on Phuket and the other in Stockholm, then I'm covered for the regions I'd like to dive in, take the UK out of the equation and travel becomes cheaper. I wouldn't waste money on a scooter, you can rent them and for the infrequent use they get there is no point buying them (used to have two, both sold to YD'ers)

All my other kit is fine I think, works for me, for wet diving I'd visit "Hotwave" on Phuket for a MTM semi-dry in 2 days, last one was great until stolen along with everything else. I already have a Shogun to haul it all around in and even a fuel card courtesy of my employers.

Most important bit of kit though is the support I get from Linda to allow me to pursue this silly sport, there is no way I'd ever consider upgrading or swapping that out

Interesting thread in that those who have replied either have their dream kit already or seem to want the moon on a stick

Me, I am in the "I pretty much have all the kit I've wanted" group though new Scubapro regs are on the horizon as is a new suit inflate bottle arrangement, then I am pretty much done I think ..... but I am sure I'll find some more things to buy.

As to the outrageous, I'd like a filtration system for the North Sea to make the water that is a few hundred yards from my house, divable.

I'm pretty much in the I've got my dream kit camp.

I think spares of a few things would be nice - a spare drysuit for example. And there are always toys like scooters and video cameras.

Travel is my biggest problem but if I was fabulously-well-to-do then I'd have a private seaplane and sherpas.

However, my biggest luxury would be a brand new undersuit every day.

I want a boat. A big one. Something I can go off and have adventures with.

She'll be called "Far Horizon".

Ahh, one day...
