Default Air Compressor For Dockside Work

Since air quality is of little or no concern why bother with a compressor
and regulator at all. Just clamp a garden hose to a snorkel and tie the open
end to a piling so it stays above water. You only need a few minutes under
water for most tasks anyway.


Are you the same guy who posts on rec.scuba? If so, why are you asking
such BS?

Most marina divers I've known just use a dive tank with a long hose. Chock
the tank securely on the dock so you don't pull it down on yourself, and
away you go.

Am wondering if anyone has set up a small air compressor rig, 110V,
similar to the ones used by divers for hull cleaning services. I assume
just a small oil-less compressor and couple it directly to a stock dive
regulator? I only need it dockside in a marina with 30A seervice.
THANKS for any input
