SCUBA DIVERS DUFFEL BAG
Rating: HUGE 8/22/2006

Large, good zippers, lots of room, d-flap opening for easy access, big... fif I mention large ? Oh yeah, and CHEAP! If you dont mind the advertising for the site you are obviously visiting now - then get one of these, and replace that old junk you have now.

SCUBA STAINLESS STEEL UNDERWATER SAFETY SHEARS
Rating: NO brainer 8/22/2006

These cut ANYTHING. You can chop a penny in half and not blink or strain. Thick poly-prop line ? Yup! Steel leader cable ? Yup! Ive cleaned up a few areas of some wrecks in the keys with these, and I have a spare pair in the bag for emergencies. You can cut a wetsuit off an injured person in a bout 10 seconds. Most EMTs carry these. For the price - get a few pairs. MUCH better than knives for most tasks.

OCEANIC VECTOR FULL FOOT FINS
Rating: Quick and light 8/22/2006

I have many pairs of fins - some I like, some I love. I decided to try these when they went on sale. I broke them in during lobster season in the keys. I probably swam a marathon that day and never felt it! These fins are suprisingly light and agile, yet have just enough snap to the kick that they are FAST. I would never use them for scuba, as they do not have enough force, but they are an easy replacement for my Mares Plana fins for snorkeling! The boot rubber is also very soft against your skin - no chafing. I actaually came back to buy a set for my girl friend, and they were out of her size. I will try back soon.
