Peter and Kathy, owners of the spectacular wilderness Rendezvous Lodge in scenic Barkley Sound, are offering CoolDives viewers the following Rendezvous dive special for the month of March, 2009:

Tank Tags and BCD Tags - Save 20% on Combo Pak

I came across these custom tank labels/tags and BCD labels/tags which each work great to identify yourself and your gear above and below the surface.

I love mine, and I've seen a lot of other divers follow the link we set up and order some for themselves. You can add your name and/or logo, and by ordering the Combo package, you save 20% and also have lower shipping charges.

And dive shops are buying them by the dozens to help identify their students and gear.
