The Toronto Antique Divers Group

The Toronto Antique Diving Group is made up of divers, equipment collectors, and SCUBA enthusiasts who formed to demonstrate the use and techniques of both hard hat and antique SCUBA diving equipment. Each summer we hold a series of working diving equipment rallies in Toronto harbor. The Toronto Antique Diving Group maintains vintage diving helmets, vintage dive suits, hand operated rotary and wobble pumps, and umbilical lines with communications. Certified divers, after appropriate training, are permitted to dive various rigs. For more information send your emails to divingmachines@yahoo.ca
