Description
For sale is a ScubaPro Hydros Pro (Men’s size S, 36-lb. lift), lightly used and in excellent condition. I’ve only used it on 34 dives, and it performs like new, with no damage to any parts and barely any signs of wear. It’s a great BC, very comfortable to dive in, quick-drying, and highly compact and lightweight for travel. It’s a favorite of divemasters and scuba instructors around the world for good reason. (The only reason I don’t use it anymore is that as a technical diver I’ve switched full-time to a backplate and wing, diving mostly doubles.) I’ve taken excellent care of it, rinsing it fastidiously after every dive, and storing it hanging inside in a smoke-free home.Included with this is the original travel backpack in brand-new condition (never used), and both of the original harness options: the Trav-Tek straps and the integrated weight system with weight pockets (they're easily switched, and both configurations are shown in the photos). In addition, I’m including several extra Hydros Pro official accessories, which make the BC much more useful: three Mini D-Ring mounting plates and one Knife Accessory Plate (in the photos two of the plates are already attached to a weight pocket), one bungee loop set with cord locks, and one Thigh Cargo Pocket (total value of all these ScubaPro accessories is 4).
I’m also including a brand-new, never-used ScubaPro Air2 5th Gen., which is new in box and not yet connected (inflator hose is included). This octo/inflator functions as a backup regulator, streamlining your dive profile by eliminating the octo hose and keeping it always within easy reach. The Air2 sells separately for 9, but is included here with the Hydros Pro. Total value of all items purchased new (Hydros Pro, Air2, and accessories) is ,502.
Buyer pays shipping, and sale is final. Feel free to ask me any questions!
