Donnie, I can't attest to how dragging two sleds at one time works... Worst case is that you braid yourselves together I suppose. A buddy is supposed to be within touching distance anyway. I see the...

Years ago, I got slammed up against a wall while I was diving a pretty quick ebb in northern BC. I got pretty badly "perforated" by the urchins. I recall scrounging every patch I could find for my...

"Diver" on this forum, who lives in Denmark, was kind enough to send me these pictures of a setup on his RIB. I haven't been able to track down a fabricator yet (the couple I have spoken to want to...
