Cousteau Ocean Adventures Rebreather

What rebreather are they using on this show? Plus, what kind of FFM is that they have. Kind of a half FFM that looks like it has the ability to go rebreather or OC.

The rebreathers kind of looked like Insp or Evo's, but I swear I saw a manual add device like found on the KISS.

Pretty good show btw...nice visuals and very conservation message heavy.

is it a series or one time event?

The mask is a Kirby Morgan M-48. I've dived them for the past year. Has several advantages and some disadvantages.

They used to dive blue Inspo's but I haven't seen the show in the last year or so. They might have changed to a different setup.

This got me interested in the show, I found this link and thought I would share if anyone else wants to take a look-see

PBS Cousteau

The pics are linked from their website, those are the blue Inspos.

Fabian Cousteau used an Oceanic M-48 (clear silicone, blue frame) when we dove together.
Here at the Catalina memorial for his grandfather.

Blue Prisms and some Inspos with the KMDSI / JM Cousteau Supermask 48 with CCR Pod. JM and KMDSI have a little marketing partnership on the mask. The nato pod is not a JMC item.

all with matching dive skins .............

Cheers
