GL: Raritan Heads

[Bill Allen]

I have sea eras in both my dive boat and my hatt. I do agree with Randy, yes 
they are a little bit noisy although on my hatt I have fresh water hooked up 
and both of them are quite acceptable noise wise. The dive boat is salt 
water and noiser. But they have been very reliable in the three years I have 
had them. Bill
