I too have gone to a HP 120 ( used only during lobster season ) and love it . The rest of the year I dive a HP 100 . I found the plus problem sucked when it came time for the Hydro . I personaly could not find some one to + the tank . I used to have a fat boy LP steel 95 . The tank would flop from side to side underwater . I like that the 120 is sleaker and does not cause the flop problems . Most of my diving is done on two boats . The Great Escape and the Peace . The Peace can fill the HP tanks , and you do see quite a few HP tanks on a trip . Captain Tim has made some great upgrades to the Great Escape since he bought the boat but I would ask for one more . Upgrade the compressors to pump the HP tanks . dawhale
