There are some on this board who dive the Nautilius. Look at SeaRats entries on it.
Good to see you in the forum! Lots of great vintage divers here. You can learn much from all of them.
Have you checked out Pat's 20,000 leagues under the sea stuff yet? VERY interesting !!!

This is not the same Nautilus as the DACOR rigid buoyancy device. This was an integrated BC made by Scubapro. They had to change the name since DACOR was using it and registered it first. It was only sold with this name for a year. It wasn’t around too long anyways. I think it was around in the late 70’s, maybe early 80’s. I don’t know much more about it, but I know Jerry (diverdown1955) has a couple of them. Jerry is a member of this site, or you can also reach him under his Faux Label Works link (reproduction labels for DH regulators): www.vintagedoublehose.com/labels/index.phpGood luck
