Wow Bryan, how did you ever swing that deal? You must know some pretty well connected, influential and persistent people with great negotiating skills. :lol:

- I thanked them when I ordered my Sea Hunt wetsuit. Kind of a neat fellow to talk to... He related some info about the Body Glove brothers and O'Neill laying claim to who made the first commercial wetsuits back in the old days.
- He also said some interesting things about smooth skin neoprene. His commercial diver customers order thick, 12 mm suits with smooth skin on the inside. He said they use a mixture of water and hair conditioner to squirt inside the smooth skin to slip the suits on easy.
- Our Sea Hunt suits will be smooth on the outside but nylon lined on the inside. I ordered min in 3mm.

Just some of the cool gear you will see on the divers at Sea Hunt Forever.

These particular regulators (a Voit Polaris 50 and a DA Aquamaster) like to hang out around bars too. :D

Here are two true Voit “Frankenstein” regulators ready for Sea Hunt.
This are hybrid regulators in the true spirit of some of the regulators that were used in the filming of “sea Hunt”. From the outside they do look like all Voit parts. :)

I just got my smooth skin wetsuit top and most of my other gear is almost ready to go.

Sea Hunt adventures for the Kids!
Alec and Allan put together this great gear for the kids to take photos with at The Florida Springs Fest.
Sea Hunt Forever will be a special and unique experience for all ages. Along with the underwater action they can view from the famous glass bottom boats and displays of authentic Sea Hunt memorabilia an added experience for the young Mike Nelsons will also be provided.
The Sea Hunt Forever produces have assembled props of Sea Hunt era equipment. Kids can wear these props so they can get a taste of what it's like to dive this gear.
This is a great photo opportunity for the kids!
The equipment consists of a lightweight wooden tank and mock up double hose regulator. Original fins, mask, depth gauge, weight belt with wooden weights and an authentic looking NON functional Sea Hunt style speargun.
