    How much lift are you looking for? I have an Seaquest pro QD BC that I use for traveling and some OW single tank dives. It is capable to lift doubles and has 47lbs lift. I like it a lot and want to keep it but you are more than welcome to test it if you want to.

    That may be enough lift, but the old ones with the wraparound bladder made much better sidemount harnesses. I may take you up on your offer to try it. I will send you a PM.

    Thanks, but old BCs have a tendency to leak

    Everyone spends the first nine months of life in water. The lucky ones make frequent return visits.

    I have asked Highseas Millworks to make some prototypes. If there is enough interest they will produce them, and put them in their catalog.

    I have something very similar, buddy of mine took it and tested it in cozumel off of a boat for a week, it passed the test so safe to assume it could be used for an ultra light travel rig.

    My parts are custom waterjet, no stitching no bolts

    Mine wieghts 3lbs total
