Just $16,000.00 and a trifling $100,000.00 for a tricked out version? Oh well, it was a nice idea for a short time, pretty astounding performance though. Just make sure you have enough viz. for all that speed and can equalize instantly hands free. I asked how fast could a skillful operator could go UW and was told 13 kts.!? Seems unlikely given drag but if you could that might mean an easy 1 minute breathhold could see you covering over a quarter mile UW and a half mile in just two minutes. The thing about scooter free diving is how little air you burn, the scooter does all the work. I understand they make a quick disconnect tow harness for this thing as well.



If a you can do amazing things with a DPV going under 2 kts., what could you accomplish with this thing? It is only rated for 130 ft. but the distance over bottom you could cover on a breath could be impressive. That is as long as you don't hit something and bury your head into it three feet deep!
