    Can anyone name local dealers in FL? I've sent my request to the email published at their site but have no response.

    Dive Locker in Panama City Beach, Florida (850 230 8006 divelocker@divelocker.net) is a Oceanic/Hollis dealer, and will be getting a couple of the scooters any day now according to the Rep.

    Florida Scuba Depot in Naples is a Hollis dealer as well. Give Steve a call at 239-597-7930 and see what he can do.

    Did Oceanic buy out X-scooters? That "Hollis" looks a lot like the X-scooter, even down to the aluminum hull. I know they bought the rights to the Prism rebreather.

    No they didn't. It's a similar design, but is has a middle screw on the nose that attaches the hull to the bottom of the scooter.

    You can also get it with an optional headlight.

    They copied the design of the x pretty well (down to the trigger handle), but the "guts" of the scooter are nothing like the X.

    I should also mention that when I was at BTS, I asked the Hollis rep where the vent was on their SEALED battery pack. The response was "vent? why do you need a vent on a battery back!"

    I smiled and walked away.
