Grab a ScubaPro Everdry4 and keep warm!

Winter Introductory Offer: $999.00 (RRP $1399.00)

You can feel it in the air, and you’re layering up to head to work in the morning.  Winter is on its way and while the water is still warm now, in May, by the end of June it’s going to start getting unpleasant in a wet suit.. But don’t let it be an excuse to stop diving. Owning a dry suit is cheaper than you may think and you’ll thank yourself for it when the water drops below that comfortable 17-18 degree mark!

St George Underwater Centre have a special Winter Introductory offer for the Scubapro Everdry 4mm Dry Suit. This suit looks as smart as it actually is....with a warm construction, neoprene seals and socks (you just slip on your normal boots and go!) it even comes equipped with a thigh pocket for extra gear. Come in and take a look at one for yourself, because at this price, we reckon Kel has gone craaaaazzzy!

It has top and side mount gland options with two Li-Ion battery pack options of 96 & 144 watt hours. Setting two produces over 1750 Lumen at 14 watts. Setting three produces over 750 Lumen at 5 watts. Setting three can be used safely out of the water.
  • LD-15 RRP $1495 – a 6.0 degree beam that produces over 1500 Lumen of light on setting one at 16 watts. It has top and side mount gland options with a NiMH 54 watt hour and two Li-Ion 96 & 144 watt hour battery pack options. Setting two produces over 1100 Lumen at 10 watts. Setting three produces over 800 Lumen at 5 watts. Setting three can be used safely out of the water.
