Dacor Nautilus CVS

[Deleted]

DACOR Nautilus Constant Volume System.
This iconic rare vintage 70's gear was ahead of its time. There are debates that it was a great item that some still use today and others who believe Dacor never quite got it right. This constant volume system has a serial number of 2266. I have never personally used it but it appears to be in great shape with nothing broken and everything looks solid. Just a little dusty from sitting on the shelf. Given the risks of diving vintage items it would be advisable to order the manual from others who have one or can give advice on this system. These don't come on the market often.

Wazeesports,

See if you can find the low pressure hose that connects to the regulator. The fitting is unique to this unit, and needed for the unit to be functional.

I happen to have a couple hoses that work with this if you're still in need.

Do you still have this?  I have owned two of them and like a fool I sold them.  I'm retired now and living in the Philippines, would sure like to have another one.  If you still have this please email me at [e-mail] or call me at 936-245-0776.  I use a shipping company so that is not a problem, will pay all fees!


Best regards,

I can't imagine the shipping fees. Good luck finding one. I have two also and, though I haven't used a Nautilus this summer, would not part with both.
...one maybe 😄

I have one and a half (one without the Nautilus regulator). I have used both in my local river waters, and like them. I also have the manual if you ever get one, I can get the manual to you. Finally, I have a weight mold for the Nautilus weights, and have in the past loaned it out to other Nautalus users to mold their own 4-pound lead weights (actually not quite four pounds each).
