Hello diving world
Hello everyone. I'm not so new to diving (first open water dive in May 1989), but I'm new to forums. Evidently I've already breached etiquette by posting a "for sale" before introducing myself. Sorry all, I'll try not to do it again.

Learned to dive with the Loughborough Uni Club so a lot of my training was done at Stoney Cove. Now I live in the south east and nearly all of my diving is on wrecks along the south coast; Dover, Littlehampton, Weymouth, Plymouth. I'm not part of any club and tend to tag along where spaces and time permits. Typically I seem to do about 30 - 50 dives per year (time seems to be the limiting factor, anyone else have this problem?). I've been using an Inspiration since 1999 and have been very happy with it, to the point that I've only used open circuit on 3 UK (novice training) dives since. Learned open circuit trimix in 1996; a lot of my diving now seems to be in the ~70m range, but I certainly do enjoy the 30m stuff (or at least the lack of deco).

Bye for now, speak to you all again soon no doubt!

Nevil

Welcome Nevil, what are you replacing the YBOD with?

Welcome and why sell the YBOD?
You should keep it until its 10th Birthday!

Thanks for your warm welcome everyone! You're right, it's not a good day for diving, just a good day to go to the pub and talk about it!

Like many people I'm upgrading the YBOD to Vision, so I'll still be rebreathering it. I saw one in action this summer and put in a request to AP on the Monday morning! It is a tough call whether to upgrade my unit or sell up & buy a new one. Thought I'd give someone the chance to join the rebreather scene on a budget. Hope I'm doing the right thing and there are still a few people wanting a "Classic Classic" (nice one Odin) out there...

Cheers for now,

Nevil
