PRISM BP&W Mod

Chris · 21st June 2005, 10:54

Hi all
For those that have an interest, I have completed the first modifications of my PRISM in removing the Gimp Harness, and replacing it with a Backplate & Wing.

I am really happy with the conversion, it has really made the unit more comfortable, less restrictive and more streamlined, without affecting the WOB at all.

A big thanks to Deep Sea Supply the PRISM bits work a treat.

A few images can be found here, apologise for the model

Cheers
Chris

Nice conversion, Chris, looks good. Even with you in the picture.

Maybe offer the Rebreather as a prop to Wicked Weasel, get some decent shots ...

... and dates.

Hmm not a bad idea at all, kind of like the old poster for the Dolphin with the young lass in a yellow one piece and a Machine gun

Cheers

Chris did an excellent job thinking things through. He's also the first Prism owner I saw rig up side mount BO. I was inspired...
