    My tanks all lie down along the wall under the "dry" rack. I also have shelves for stuff I don't use often (Ok TJ, maybe never )
    You should not have posted (boasted) here... Seems I took some pictures of your 'organization'... But I'm heading out to dive, so I won't embarrass you by pulling them out....

    You might want to check out your local S*m'* or Wal-**** they have metal storage racks for about $70-80 that have adjustable shelfs that we use in our dive gear room to store stuff on... They are nice because we can lay our wet stuff on them to dry and hang our suits from them to dry as well.. We have had them for a couple years now and they have not rusted.

    As far as the wife and kids go, curtschu, just make sure they dive as well... My hubby and I have a whole room full of nothing but dive gear...

    Default Wife and kids

    Yeah, I keep trying but.. the wife thinks I'm nuts and the 3 YO gets cranky and about 30 ft. Just kidding. I hope she shows an interest when she gets a little older. HMM I could get a SS with a camera mount and strap her to that.

    Default Storage

    Matt, I suggest the "Caver95" storage method. Just toss everything in the back of your truck, and buy gear insurance. Also toss in cans, bottles, rusted tools , dead fish, etc... just to make the truck "blend in", espicially if you are travelling in Wakulla County.
    In Wakulla county you know if your truck is too full if more than one piece of trash gets sucked out per mile. Of course, thats a average taken over a week. You can have the occasional brown bags and 12 pack empties, once a month or so.
    If you pee in your suit and not wash it, then the odor may be used in lieu of insurance. DONT dry anything. Always leave it wet and sticky. If its wet, sticky, and stinks like old pee, then nobody will mess with it at all. Try to get the pee smell strong enough to have a "cone of protection" around the truck. Eat lots of asparigus for a couple of months.
    After you have done all of that, just park the truck in your big garage.

    Maybe you can get SS to make a "scooter seat" for her... might be more comfortable for her...

    That would be to much drag.... not to mention hitting her head on the over head. Just have her breath of the long hose and clip her to the rear d-ring.
