    I am not sure what is currently the longest, but here are some places to start.

    Weeki Wachee Spring U.S.A. Florida 1.894miles 3048meters 403feet 122.8 meters

    Rick Stanton,... Pearse Resurgence, in New Zealand,... during which he established a record-breaking dive to a depth of 177-metres.
    Later that year there was a long penetration at a depth of 180m in the St Sauveur in France on a dive of nearly 17 hours duration. Earlier this
    year that was followed by a 220m deep dive in the Goule de Tannerie

    You can also have a look at this web site:
    http://www.plongeesout.com/

    Select "Siphonométries" in the left frame, then on Monde. There are a couple of pdf documents on the Monde page that might be helpful. The editors of these documents generally use publications to support maximum depths, penetrations, etc.

    Although the editors do not include the type of equipment used for the dive, at least you know where to look for further information.
