How to handle the dive gear in the car?
In the meantime the equipment handling and transportation possibilities are defines the size of the car.
It becomes more and more important – because for technical diving – that more and more diving gear has to handled and to be fixed in the car probably.
After some single solutions I prefer to have a fixed frame in the trunk on which the scuba tanks can be fixed and strapped safely. I found an internet shop in Australia (www.hampdon.com.au), selling tank holders beside welding equipment.
The frame itself is made by T-nut aluminium profiles (Bosch-Profile) which can be ordered via internet easily.
See the results after some hours working:
