The Mares Bolt can handle single or double scuba tanks, has 46 pounds of lift, and is still compact enough to travel. This BC's slide-and-lock weight system locks with the push of a button, and indicates when it’s secure. The harness hugs your body comfortably but without restricting movement.

The Hydros Pro is as adaptable as they come — just about every piece of it can be removed, replaced or adjusted. The Monprene harness molds to your body to make this back-inflate BC comfortable and stable. To go from full integrated-weight rig to stripped-down travel BC, you can swap the weight pockets for straight straps in about one minute without tools.
