Bill Stone's Mark VI

AntoineD · 4th February 2007, 16:40

Hi all,
Maybe the subject has been discussed already but:

Has any of you some information on Bill Stone's new rebreather project:
Stone Aerospace Smart Tools, Systems, and Vehicles for Exploring and Commercializing the Frontier
(design, cost..)
Given the trackrecord of the commercialized MK5, I d expect a lot from this new compact Rebreather.

Thanks

I doubt it. I don't even think they already build it.
I know they're planning to use it for an expedition (Mexico) during 2008...

Wait ... wait ...

Oh come on, he didn't say it was going to be this year...

Heard that its going to be for a recreational market only...

But that would be a shame,right?

i suspect a military varient will arise given Poseidon's close links to global forces, that and everyone wants to be done with Mk16 varients
