It is with sadness that i have to inform every one who knew Gil Knott from saga ventures in the USA that he has past way at 63 after a short battle with cancer,
his wife Linda Knott contacted me tonight and asked me to contact others that may have known Gil,
I've had contact with Gil for a number of years after he designed FFM conversion's for rebreathers
Gil worked for Intersiro/AGA and saga ventures until leaving them and moved west.
where he was diagnosed with cancer on the 9 march and passed away on the 1st of June
the world has lost a great guy, gods speed Gil and deepest sympathy's to Linda and family
kind wishes john routley

That's very, very sad.

He was very kind and generous - and he made great dive stuff.

He designed and made my Inspo/Bob H BOV FFM conversion for me and even posted a couple of times on SWM. I think/hope he enjoyed the humour!

Best wishes to Linda.

So sorry to hear of his passing.

hi john this a little bit of one of my email from gil.......aparently your a rowdy bunch!

I'm sure you know that I hooked up John(Mdemon) with an AGA to his Bob Howell DSV....I guess he's having fun. I joined his site...Southwest Mafia...they do get rowdy but a lot of fun. My problem is the Brit slang but I'm learning.

you were in good company john
we have lost another good guy to this evil desese.
kind regards john routley
