Does anyone have any pictures of shelves, etc they have built/bought for their van for cave diving? I have a new van and interested in what I might want to do different from my old van.
Thanks
Vince

The new van is all white and has no windows in the sides or rear. It has sexual predator written all over it ............"not literally". Anyone who can dress up and look remotely like a 13 yr old alter boy gets a ride.

After Vince's post, I do not want to even admit that I was once an altar boy.
I would prefer to be an Acolyte ;> maybe with some nice robes, an Axe, some intro diver sacrifices...

shag carpet on the van's walls & ceilings would be a plus...nothing says 'predator' like trace.

He took the chamber out? :smt102 Rob? WTH?
Here are some old photos. It was a little messy there. I've since replaced the bins with shorter ones and added another shelf for more tanks. The last photo is the front part of the van. The tanks are all stored behind that (it's an extended van). And, yes, Shirley, I had to take out the chamber when I bought more tanks! ;)

Its not the van. Its the procedure you use to pack it.

Our van comes with a Haskell Booster--but you must be upside-down to use it.

Do you get a discount when you order the pump in such an installation?
