So I went to pick up my BCD and my regulator and just as we thought, the BCD was shot. the bladder could not be replaced. The Regulator had to be over hauled but worth it. Cost me $130.00 to replace some seals and hoses, but since it had the alternate second stage, I thought it was well worth it.
There was some used BCD's for sale and I found one that was in almost new condition for $115. It was Scuba Pro and the instructor said I can use it while I take the course. So I thought that was great. It didnt have the integrated weight system but it did have the double quick air release on the front and the back like I wanted. So now I have Scuba Pro fins, boots, and BCD. This I feel is a good start. My dive bag is completely full. May need a bigger bag if they make one.
Dive class starts tonight and I am excited but nervous. I think I have forgot some of the literature that I thought I had familiarized. Oh well, I guess it will come back to me when we start going over it in class.
