No idea, but you might wanna try the one in East Coast Park Chalet, located right beside the swimming pool. I can't even remember the name, and have no idea if it is still there

You may want to contact Dylan @ 96939851. I rent most of my tanks from him.

Yah came back Wednesday. Now involved in another project which will require using a full face diving helmet so got to test it first for integrity and handling. Going to Bali for this one and will be back to enjoy the 2m viz next Sat. Thanks all for your replies!

Ursula is the nickname for the USVH housing I've acquired to use with the PD100. It actually beloings to a friend of ours. Hopefully if I can get the insurance and if I feel strong enough to lugging the stupid box, I'll try to bring it.
