Due to a Power Shortage at my house I was not able to post today’s Question in time. Sorry for the delay! The Correct Answer of June 19th Quiz is: D: Hans Hass DecoBrain. This Question was indeed a bit difficult. We asked for the first “decompression” dive computer. The Orca-Edge was available in 1983  (the DecoBrain in 1984), but the Orca-Edge was only a non-decompression dive computer. For today’s question we received in total just 19 Answers of which only 5 were correct. Today’s Winner is Jens Bo Christensen from Greenland. Congratulations on entering the final Lucky Draw on July 1st.
