Once Upon A Time

Sat Nov 29, 2014 10:52 pm

Here is a little video that shows some of the original characters in the cast of vintage divers over the years. The gear is very close to that used during the pre-1970 period of diving. With new innovations in double hose diving each day, it is nice to remember some of the early years.

Great video Allan. Thanks for keeping the Memories of Fred Morrison aka scubanut alive!. He was definitely one of those that were vintage / period correct. 8)
First dives? 1967 and I never lost the fever.

I can't believe Fred has been gone that long. He was one hell of a vintage diver for sure. I am glad and honored to have dived with him.
