Vintage scuba business for sale

[vinscu]

  It's time to let go of my beloved Vintage Scuba website that I started back in 1997, the first of it's kind on the internet. My interest in it has waned and the website and internet technology is now over my head.


    The purchase of this business will include three rubber molds that include US Divers style hoses, duckbill valves and mouthpiece valves. The replacement cost for these molds would be in excess of $40k. Also included in this package is my website, domain name, wholesale accounts with some national scuba suppliers and instructions for rebuilding double hose regulators and other vintage gear. Other options include a large inventory of vintage scuba parts, accessories, manuals and books.

   The interest in vintage scuba diving is growing every year and with only one or two such businesses in existence, the growth possibilities are endless with someone who is knowledgeable and motivated to put in the effort. Serious inquires only please. [e-mail]

Hey Dan,
I got some hoses and other rubber goods from you way back when they were hard to find anywhere else. Although I wasn't a big customer, I greatly appreciate what you did to help us get our old regulators working. Having parts available to restore the double hose regulators of my early diving years led me to become an avid collector/restorer and active vintage diver. I'm sure a lot of folks here greatly appreciate you.

Thanks!
Antique Diver

Dan,

It’s been a while, but I really appreciate the work you have done for me, servicing my Trieste II, getting my Mossback Mk 3 conversion completed from my DA Aquamaster, and I think I have one of the few now in existence. Because I’m a few years ahead of you, I am not a prospective buyer, but have very much appreciated your services. Also setting up the VSS discussion groups, with Linda overseeing it, was a magnificent addition to the vintage scuba community. ‘Hope the sale goes through and all goes well.

Hey Dan,

It's always a mixed bag when someone who offers a great service moves on to other things. We'll miss your contribution to the vintage diving community and certainly hope you enjoy this next phase of your life.

We'll be traveling 199 on our way from Humboldt to Washington in August. Maybe we can stop by and check out your operation.

Good dives,
Charlie
