I know there are local readers and lurkers out there so I am posting this here in hopes someone can help?

On Friday, 13 February, a client thinks he left 2 tanks belonging to Rec Tek Scuba in the Shallow water at the entry area to the Windjammer. They are a Yellow Steel 51 cu ft. with a Nitrox Sticker, Rigging clips with a new Posidon Reg attached. The other was an Aluminum 80 shot blasted with a Nitrox Sticker, Rigging clips and a New Posidon Reg. Both Tanks and Regs are DIN's.

If you have found these, would you please call me at either 717-6537 or 790-6537 to arrange collect your reward and to return them. Or email me at: info@rectekscuba.com

Thanks

Walt Stark

Not a stressful dive but a stressful next day trying to find them. They were found by another diver and turned in to the Rincon Police station. The diver contacted the police in Playa to see if they had been turned in and made them call Rincon who said yes we have them shall we bring them to Playa? So both of us got our toys back. He just got busy Talking after the dive and forgot to walk back into the water and pick them up.

A tool can't be a toy? Sez Who? EG: Laser levels, compound mitre saws, Hoseless computers, all these things were toys when they were introduced, and to the new owner probably still are. Toys are things you play with, and NOTHING is more creative than that.

Get real Seb, the so-called "toys" Walt uses are life-saving equipment, used properly you are able to complete a safe dive, loss of said "toys" on a dive could lead of de-compression illness and that is just for openers.

What you refer to are "nice to have" but your life does not depend on them...laser levels, compound mitre saws, hoseless computers.. those are your toys.. if ever carried a pony bottle or deco-tank you would never refer to them as "toys".
