Explorer 55 wing for sale

JohnOll · February 3rd, 2007, 10:58 PM

I have gone to a smaller wing, so have no use for my Explorer 55 now.

This is a 2002 wing which has done about 200 dives. It is in very good condition and comes with a new LP hose.

It is on ebay, under Bouyancy compensators, but a search on Halcyon should bring it up.

eBay.co.uk: Halcyon Explorer 55 DIR technical scuba diving wing (item 320078652222 end time 10-Feb-07 19:00:00 GMT)

Happy bidding.

John.

There seem to be a few 55lb Explorers on Ebay at the moment. Do many people find them too big or are they changing for other reasons as well?

Hi Gav,

The 55lb wing is too big for Double 12s, They wrap too far up the cylinders and make it hard to dump gas out of. For 12s a 40lb/20kg wing is a much better option.
