I still float tube. Is easier to carry the tube than my kayak or
canoe. I happen to crry mine inflated, but just get a pony bottle for
scuba. About 3000psi and maybe 2 pounds.

I was thinking CO2 or something like that. Maybe a paintball tank, but
that make perfect sense.


I'll have to check pricing, but I think a CO2 Jac Pac might be the
answer. Use a hose nozzle or adaptor to my tube fitting instead of
plugging it into a nail gun or other air tool. Relatively cheap too.


Scuba shops will refill paintball tanks. At least Sport Chalet does.


No scuba shops in Yuma, but I just found a paintball shop that will refill
for $5 per pound. Not great, but hey, wadda ya gonna do?
