Mini B C-Pro

Neale Byart tries a shallow-water dive system designed to help sailors free props, scrub hulls and set anchors

There are numerous models available from Mini B, but the C-Pro is aimed at yachtsmen. The beauty of the kit is in its packaging. Conventional scuba gear is bulky, but the C-Pro rucksack contains the lot – air bottle, buoyancy control device, regulator, high and low pressure hoses and the connectors. It doesn't have a depth gauge, though – and you'd be foolish to dive more than a couple of metres without one.

Neale Byart tries a shallow-water dive system designed to help sailors free props, scrub hulls and set anchors

Diving would make it so much easier to free a fouled propeller, scrub the hull, check the anchor set or the condition of a swinging mooring, or inspect for damage after grounding. And on idle summer days at anchor, you can explore the world below the waves.

Diving gear in a backpack

The Microdiver kit is full-on but affordable diving gear in a small backpack. It's ideal for underwater boat maintenance and inspections, retrieving fouled anchors and generally having fun.

Aimes at boat owners, the C-Pro model includes a 3 or 5ltr air cylinder, providing enough air for half an hour at depths up to 9m. The kit includes regulator, pressure gauge, pockets for weights and a buoyancy chamber, all in a backpack that's easy to stow and carry.
