Scuba Forum / General / August 2005Looking For A Conshelf 14 (XIV) Rig
I bought a Conshelf 14 rig for myself, and now my buddy (wife) wants one too. Anyone have an old rig laying around? I would like one with the Conshelf 14 1st & 2nd stage, compass, depth, SPG, octo, and BC hose, but other configurations will work. Thanks!

I'm not sure why you list the Roman numerals. Did it appear that way on the 14 ?? I have the 1st and 2nd stage hook with the Conshelf 20 primary reg but a Sherwood octo reg. Are you saying that Conshelf made compasses and depth gauges too ?? Hi Salty! I have seen Conshelf 14s with XIV and with 14. I'm looking for both. I am not saying that there is a Conshelf compass or depth gauge. I'm just looking for the whole rig, not just the regulators. How much do you want for your rig? Mike > Hi Salty! > I have seen Conshelf 14s with XIV and with 14. I'm looking for both. Hi again Mike :) Hmm. So they were manufactured with both the Roman numeral and the 'modern' number ?? That's odd. How long was the Conshelf 14 on the market ?? Can you give any info about the progression from the 14 that you have to the 20 that I have ?? I haven't researched them. > I am not saying that there is a Conshelf compass or depth gauge. I'm > just looking for the whole rig, not just the regulators. Ahh... ok. Well I'm not sure that I can help you but I have the original Conshelf reg, hose and first stage but I don't have a Conshelf octopus for it. However, the Sherwood octopus that is on there is just as old as the Conshelf 20. > How much do you want for your rig? I honestly never thought about selling it and that is because I never thought anyone would want it. I almost threw the whole thing in the trashcan a few years ago because I didn't consider selling it but I decided to hold onto it. Why are you looking for these... for their antique value ?? I mean, they are so old that I'm not sure why someone would want them except for the antique value because there are many fine current/new regs that are on the market today. Do you wanna make me an offer that I can't refuse ?? <evil grin> Salty, I'm not an expert on the Conshelf. I have no idea how the Conshelf has evolved over the years. My limited research leads me to believe a used Conshelf 14 is a good cheap reliable regulator. It has stood the test of time. I'm looking for these because they're good regulators that won't change next year and once I learn to rebuild them I won't have to worry about the dealer not servicing them because they're last years design. I have a source for the rebuild kits so that's not an issue. It's been around for ages so I don't think they're going to change it anytime soon. I bought what I need from eBay, but I can use some spare parts. I'll give you $10 for the rig plus shipping.

"honest" and "Greg" are mutually exclusive. >> > Your life insurance is paid up I hope? >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > "honest" and "Greg" are mutually exclusive. Oh, come on now. My motivation was entirely pure. I could have solicited a probate retainer from his next of kin, something that obviously would have paid off in the very near future, but I was trying to be nice. If you'd keep your mouth shut, I would recommend he talk to you about machining a custom aluminum coffin. Thanks for the free advice. Are you always thinking about the negative side of things? > Salty, > > I'm not an expert on the Conshelf. I have no idea how the Conshelf has > evolved over the years.

I am going to get a bit more than $10 for this rig... but I do appreciate your offer. :) Have a wonderful summer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~B~ |
