I have never seen a diver with one, that is for sure, I have never seen them in a dive shop either. Obviously that was a failure as well, and now they are trying to pawn them off on ebay divers.
    I couldn't agree more! The only this is that I would have to say is that atleast the single tank wheels wasn't a big obstruction. Here's a site where someone converted a golf cart to a single tank carrier. http://home.comcast.net/~airgunner/id17.htm
    Singles aren't that bad so it seems like a waste but a lot cheaper solution that could be converted for doubles. Also sand/off road wagons were designed to transport tanks too.

    Default Disaster!!

    Need I say this? This is a disaster waiting to happen! Each of the wheels is entanglement hazard, not to mention the handle. Why would you add more weight to what is all ready a heavy set up? This is designed by someone who does not dive doubles very much, if at all. There is no up side to this, and a slug of down sides. There is the real safety issue of points of entanglement. You are inviting trouble with this rig.
