The owner of a sailboat anchored in Hornstrand, Iceland, tests a portable 1-liter scuba diving set to replace sacrificial anodes on a Flexofold folding propeller and inspect the hull for growth.0:57 The kit includes a high-pressure hand pump, a mask, and a regulator, but the user finds the manual pump physically exhausting, requiring 15 minutes of effort to increase pressure from 150 to 200 bar.10:41 During his first open-water dives in 6°C (43°F) water, he struggles with buoyancy control due to his wetsuit and significant current, which causes rapid air consumption.23:15 He concludes that the 1-liter tank provides only 5 to 8 minutes of air, making it suitable for emergency tasks like clearing a fouled propeller rather than extended underwater work.29:11 To improve efficiency, he supplements the kit with a 12-liter scuba tank and an adapter to refill the smaller bottle quickly.19:56 He notes that additional weight is necessary to overcome the buoyancy of his gear and recommends rinsing all components thoroughly in fresh water after use.24:39
