Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Depth Gauges

Jim,

Go to www.usabluebook.com for gages incremented in feet of water. If you will be diving in mainly salt water the faces need to be changed. Two inch gages don?t give you much for resolution. As an aside, an accurate depth gage can be used for navigation when you on near bottom with some contour. It is common practice to run down an isoclines (I.e. follow a depth curve) when trying to navigate to something. Www.mar-vel.com should have gages that will measure feet of seawater.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Depth Gauges

Hi All,

I am looking for depth gauges for my sub and ballast tanks. I wish to use mechanical gauges with 2 inch face. I do not wish to use any electronics at this time. Does anyone have a source for these. They will need to go from 0 - 1000 feet.

I realize that I can re-lable standard pressure gauges but would like to buy the correct ones if possible.

Best Regards,

Jim K
