Sydney / Australia Where to Get Boosted O2 ?

Def · 13th March 2006, 03:56

Gday,

I was wondering if someone had a list of Dive Shops ?? that can provide a 02 fill for the breathers ?

I live south side, and do not really want to go all the way to the Spit, does anyone else know of other places ?

Hope this is in the right thread / Section!

Thanks,

Cameron.

Hi Cameron.
I think you are out of luck Baz at SXD has the only commercial booster running in Sydney. I think there are some private ones around, you might want to post on http://www.diveoz.com.au and see what you get.

Of course you can always stick a bottle of O2 in your garage with a whip off it. Might work out cheaper depending on how far you have to travel for a fill.

Cheers
Chris

Thanks for that Chris,

I know Peter @ Plunge is getting one set up as well....

Regarding the bottle of O2 and a whip, thats always on the back of my mind, I would need to get a booster and all the other gear as well..... just forked out for the unit, the card is hot at the moment!

Cameron.

Mother England? Maybe in November, but Oz, where culture is a pot of yoghurt? Not sure yet, but brace yourself young shaver.....

And all this from a man who lives in a shed in the shakey isles.
