Never seen that many Healthways double hose regs. in one place at one time!!! Love the Divair!, not sure I'd have the ability to rebuild one, but would be a neat thing to try!? I wish I still lived on the West Coast, I'm jealous!!! Glad to see you had fun! Mark

Hi All It was great meeting so many other double hose divers. I enjoyed the dives and the company. As you can tell, I joined the forum and plan on meeting up for the next dive/ event. How do I post some pictures? Mark Go to the home page and scroll down to “tech support”. If you have a problem contact Searat or Nikeajax.

Quick post (I'll add more when I have more time) to say, AWESOME WEEKEND!
A really neat bunch of guys and gals. I enjoyed meeting everyone. Makes the forum feel even more "family". Thanks for the photos. It always seems to slip my mind to take pictures.
And, I'd like to especially thank you, Jim, for spearheading this event! I think we're all indebted to you! I hope this becomes a yearly event. Do we need to give it a name?

Thanks for sharing everyone.
Next year: With a little extra notice I could totally make this trip. I have family in Fresno, and Alaska Airlines flies into SFO.

Hi David. I am open to start the planning right now. I like October because the weather is usually very nice. I didn't take the tides into consideration this year, a mistake I don't want to repeat. Anyone who is interested in attending is welcome to chime in on this forum or the Vintage Diving in Monterey California FB page.

I have family in Fresno, and Alaska Airlines flies into SFO. Yes, but their hub is in Oakland, wayyyy less people and traffic to contend with JB

Yes, but their hub is in Oakland, wayyyy less people and traffic to contend with JB The past two years October has been more bad diving than good except mid week but you can’t plan further out than a few days if conditions matter. It’s more of a matter of making the plan and hoping for decent diving.

So, Charlie brought a Sportsways 72 with a matching J-valve, and a Healthways Scubapak attached... Jim and Charlie thought they'd wait 'til my wife was preoccupied to tempt me their drugs stuff, little did they know that she's usually the one egging me on, "No, I don't need that tank and pack, sorry, I've got too much stuff..." "Sure you do," she says with a lilt in her voice, "it even has a Healthways pack!" Then Charlie disappears for a while and returns with a big box of crack very hard to find parts. After rooting through it three times I ask, "So, what do you want for all of this?" "How about 40bux?" " CURSE YOU RED BARRON!" JB

Good stuff, and glad it was a success. I’m definitely going to try to make it next year.

Looks good together.
I know I promised to look for a few things when I got home. I haven't gotten there yet. I'm still working on family home. The house is old and has some issues, but so do I.
Good Dives, Charlie

Looks like an awesome event! Hey, Jaybird, could you go back to the photos on the previous page and edit your posts to include some first names and/or forum user id’s so the rest of us can put faces to names? So glad y’all got together. 😊

...and edit your posts to include some first names and/or forum user id’s so the rest of us can put faces to names? I had a bit of trouble with that myself...and I was THERE! But, I got it straightened out and made my apologies, so I hope not to make the same mistakes again. LOL! Let's just say Charlie was NOT carrying a big ling so we can excuse my crappy memory. It really was a nice event, and couldn't ask for a better bunch.
