I used to do my own boat, but then a diver moved in two slips down and would do the boat for about $40. Well worth it. Then he retired and I went back to doing it myself since the regular guy is about $160 or so. I am ordering a long hose for next year because getting the whole BC and weight rig n is a PITA for bottom cleaning.

I have a 50 hose and a Conshelf XIV regulator I bought off eBay. The hose is from browniesmarinegroup.com <http://browniesmarinegroup.com> . They also sell compressors but they're a wee bit pricey. I just leave the tank on the pier and dive. I have a 5/3 wetsuit and weight belt. Helps to have a shallow slip so I can stand on the bottom and press up. You might cruise eBay for a used dive or tank filling compressor. You don't need to be certified to fill your own tanks. Dennis C.

Jack, how do you clean your hull? Do you do it yourself or hire it out. I am considering getting dive certified so I can get a set of tanks and air. Even with all the gear (weights, wet suit, etc.) I think it would be a lot less expensive in the long run and as a bonus, I would be certified to dive. Up here in the northeast I don’t think I would need to do it as often as you unless I start racing. It would also be nice to change my prop shaft zincs once during the season and deal with other various issues that might require me to work on the exterior of the hull below the water line.

Many will know it is the Winter Solstice, occurring in North America between ~ 3 - 6 PM local time. A time of the longest night and to make this year special we also have a New Moon so expect it to be the darkest night as well. We will celebrate with our usual fire in the backyard firepit... and maybe some hot rums. :) Wish you could be here, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 Nanaimo _____ No virus found in this message.
