    Sorry, the brand is a Hollis H-160 DPV. Here’s what it looks like: http://www.hollisgear.com/prodview.asp?id=20 .

    It is a style very much like Larry’s only shorter. It goes about 190ft/min. At full speed/ full pitch.It has a variable speed switch (50%, 75% & 100%). The run time on a fully charged battery is about an hour at full speed & about 2hrs at 50% Speed. The battery takes 5hrs to get to full charge.The hull screws onto the internal frame instead of clipping on. It has 2- .8lb trim weights that fit squarely on the battery. Without the trim weights it is very positively buoyant, but with them is negative, until you get it going, then planes out neutral. It has a very smooth take off,… very gradual, doesn’t jerk at all. It will run for about 1- 2 sec. after releasing the trigger, so takes some timing to stop where you want. It has a 3 watt headlight with 3 LED lights. I’ve only taken it to full speed once for a very short time, but the harness I was wearing at the time only has a 1” crotch strap, my other has a 2” strap. The 2” wouldn’t be bad, but 1” is a tad uncomfortable. I also couldn’t go too g=fast because the quarry only had about 10ft vis & I would be on top of other divers before I knew it.

    True. Aquatech’s Oriskany trip got canceled yesterday because of the spill. :( I was hoping to utilize my Adv. Nitrox/ deco skills a bit, but it was not meant to be.

    Well,… I’ve been trying to get people talking here, but no one is biting. Conversations usually involve more than 1 person. Let’s start talking! & Diving!

    Got to try out the scooter. Very nice! extremely smooth take- off on it. Because I’m not super familiar with DPV’s, I didn’t take it deep or very fast. although rather negatively buoyant, it was not at all hard to control. It is highly manouverable, as I got to try out since the vis was so bad. I am really pleased with it. Looks like it will do everything I need & more!

    I have to do some open water check- out dives with some students this weekend, but hopefully afterwards I can get in some ”play time” with the scooter.

    If you want to consider pool diving as such. Plenty of that for sure, just not Open Water diving. Will get to do so this weekend.

    Wish I could Bryan. My gills are drying out. The only thing keeping me going is I have been doing a lot of pool sessions for OW, lately.

    Working this weekend…..

    In reply to - Jason Massey posted an update in the group Event Discussions: Mermet weekend is this weekend. Who plans on being there? Unfortunately, Misty and I will not. Diving, in general, will probably be sparse for us again this year. Too many other things taking our money. ;-( · View

    I’ll be at Pennyroyal on Memorial Day weekend. May have some students, not sure, but going to dive. Anyone else going on that weekend? Hopefully the scooter will be here & I’ll be able to practice with it.

    At least you replied. This place has been absolutely dead.

    Just ordered a DPV to explore the quarry a bit more. It is a Hollis H-160. Kind of new to the market, but I thought I’d give it a try. Should prove interesting,…. :)
