Tim Ewing's curated collection of recreational diving equipment from the 1940s through the 1990s, right here in Kailua-Kona. Walk through five decades of scuba history, from early double-hose regulators and steel tanks to the horse-collar vests and gauges that shaped the sport.
Single- and double-hose regulators from the early days of open-circuit scuba through the 1990s.
Horse-collar vests, early BCs, classic fins, masks and snorkels.
Steel and aluminum cylinders, valves, depth gauges and early dive instruments.
