Hi All,
A friend of mine had his Akona dive bag taken by someone else (probably with the same Akona dive bag) on 17/7/2011 at Mersing Jetty (830pm). When he opened his alleged Akona dive bag, there were only fins. His bag however contained the following items :
1. Scubapro Reg MK25, S600, R295 console
2. Fins (Seawing Nova)
3. Poseidon MK3 XStream Deep Lycra
4. Hollis Solo BCD
5. 2 bottles of Glenlivet (12 years old)
If anyone out there who has mistakenly grabbed the Akona bag or heard of this mix up, kindly PM me.

That looks like it's probably a Singaporean's set.


A Hollis Solo BCD would be extremely rare in Malaysia.

Actually, it belongs to a Malaysian, a Kelantanese for that matter. Also he is a good friend of Leslie Attenborough.

I guessed the bags weight were the same? Not – surly they could tell 1 pair of fins does not have the same weight as all those Items

It was a bag full of fins apparently when he opened it up.
