Keep yer eyes open... ISC (megalodon) gear stolen...

Post by ljjames »

repost from rebreather world....

------------------------
A truck containing ISC equipment and some personal gear was broken into on May 23rd, whilst they were attending the Show. One of ISC's prototype pathfinders was stolen since there are only 2 in existence it will be a very hard item to sell or use and is pretty much worthless except to ISC
If anyone hears anything please contact the staff at Innerspace System

F*^#ing thieves. May they be caught quickly and rot for a while behind bars. :angry:

That really sucks. Smart move on the theives parts by heading to the Dive show, knowing there would be high end gear left in vehicles. Not such a smart move stealing 2 of a kind equipment...

We can all use this as a lesson...don't leave your gear in your vehicle!

We're all hoping that the guy who stole it decides to try diving it. :blackblink:

They didn't get them at the show. Jerry's truck got hit at the hotel at SeaTac before he got to the show after just getting back into town from another show.

IF that makes since to anyone :tomnic:

It will more than likely show up in Northern California.

Given what I know about Leon - the thieves will be happy if all they end up in is jail - if they're caught.

It has NO serial number either.

I can't remember if the other Megs had serials yet, Laura do you remember?

Pathfinder = "a mini ccr." It's a sweet unit, but would be awesome if he tried to dive it... what could possibly go wrong? It'll likely turn up - it's only worth something to someone who is in that niche market...and when they get it it'll be no time before they're contacting ISC or an instructor w/ questions or for training.

Damn thief.

FWIW, the Pathfinder is a SWEET little unit - Leon and Jerry did well with it.

the bummer is, if they don't quite know what they grabbed, it'll just go in the trash bin. :(
