Aqualung Pearl Women’s BCD
The Pearl is a wrap-around jacket style BC specifically designed for the female diver. It offers an adjustable waistband and specially curved shoulder straps that provide a customizable and comfortable fit.
A unique, hybrid jacket ADV-style air cell combines a back inflation wing with a wrap-around jacket. The benefit is increased lift in a small package as well as stability throughout the dive. Sleeker, low profile lobes with scalloped lower edges to rise above the hips. The flat valves reduce drag and keep the BC streamlined. The SureLock II weight pockets align themselves. Just insert the pocket until it clicks”.
A simple, single-pull release is all that is needed to jettison the weights in an emergency. The SureLock II weight pockets can accommodate 20 lbs. (9 kg) capacity in all sizes. The Pearl also has non-releasable weight capacities in sizes SM to LG from 6 to 10 lbs. (2.7 to 4.5 kg).
Two large, lobe pockets have zippers to keep your accessories secure. Four D-rings are available to attach accessories. Attachment grommets are available for any one of the fine selection of Aqua Lung BC knives. Octo-pockets (patent pending) are on either side to securely stow your octopus. Adjustable waistband accommodates a wide variety of sizes.
The Pearl comes equipped with Aqua Lungs Power Line Inflator with an increased fill rate which is now, one of the highest air flows in the industry. The Power Line is an environmentally sealed unit for less maintenance, has integrated hose clips for attachment to the LP hose for a streamline and low profile.
The inflator is equipped with a cable activated rapid exhaust at the top, simply pull down on lower unit to dump air. The Pearl provides from 23 to 44 lbs. (10.4 to 20 kg) of Lift, comes with a low pressure 3/8″ threaded hose, and an owner’s manual.
