Basil joining rEvo rebreather range
Foxy sounding name for hi-tech new CCR
rEvo has chosen the name Basil for its new closed circuit rebreather.
The company held a competition online encouraging the public to think up a new name.
Up for grabs as a prize was a day try-diving using one of its machines.
Belgian company founder Paul Raymaekers chose Basil as the winning entry.
The undisclosed person who sent in the foxy-sounding suggestion has been informed.
rEvo says it had a good response, with tREVOr and trEvor other names up for consideration.
Let’s hope the new Basil CCR isn’t Fawlty. Boom boom.
