Huish Outdoors Acquires Liquivision
Huish Outdoors, a company with a dive portfolio that already includes brands such as Atomic Aquatics, BARE, Stahlsac and Zeagle, have acquired Canadian-based dive computer manufacturer Liquivision.
Here is the official press release:
Huish Outdoors is pleased to announce the acquisition of Liquivision Products Inc., a premier dive computer company located in Vancouver, Canada, whose products are earning rave reviews from the international dive community.
“The addition of the Liquivision team and products to our growing dive business represents a big step forward for us and we’re very excited to have them on board,” says Mike Huish, President of Huish Outdoors. “Liquivision’s products will complement our Atomic Cobalt line, and the Liquivision team will position us to bring innovative new products and technology to the market quickly. By combining Liquivision and Atomic Aquatics’ design and engineering teams, it instantly gives us unparalleled expertise in dive computer design and manufacturing, along with an appetite for innovation and amazing technology. This acquisition has created the ideal platform for our success in the dive computer business.”
Founded in 2004 by inventor, freediver and former World Record Holder Eric Fattah, Liquivision has regularly rolled out an impressive string of firsts. In 2005, their F1 bottom timer was the first dive instrument to ever incorporate an OLED display. In 2007, their high-powered X1 trimix CCR computer featured a revolutionary tap-based user interface.
In 2013 they unveiled the world’s first long range wireless dive computer, the Lynx-AI, based on ultrasonic technology, allowing a diver to monitor his or her own air, as well as the air and location of up to 9 other divers, within a 100 meter range. The Lynx has garnered many industry accolades, including a 2013 Editor’s Pick by US Sport Diver, a 97/100 rating in UK Scuba magazine (their best computer rating ever) and even a “2014 Fetish” by tech magazine WIRED. The Lynx is currently used by recreational divers, dive instructors and police, military and search & rescue teams in over 40 countries worldwide.
“I’m delighted to join the Huish team and excited about the opportunity to grow the Lynx business,” reports Eric Fattah, founder and CTO of Liquivision. “This is just the start and together we intend to take the dive computer business to the next level.” Margaret Malewski, co-owner and CEO of Liquivision adds, “This represents a milestone event for our company. Having grown Liquivision from a small start-up in Vancouver to a successful acquisition by a quality buyer in the form of Huish Outdoors is a real achievement for our team. We couldn’t be happier.”

Scubaverse is proud to announce that renowned underwater photographer Jane Morgan is the first to join our newly launched underwater photography team, alongside team lead Saeed Rashid.
With a career spanning over two decades, Jane brings a wealth of experience, creativity, and passion for the ocean. After learning to dive in 1991, Jane’s early work in marine conservation and scuba instruction in the Philippines and Borneo laid the foundation for what would become a distinguished career in underwater photojournalism.
A chance encounter with a film camera in Egypt in 2001 sparked a lifelong passion for underwater photography. Since then, Jane’s captivating imagery has been featured in top publications around the world, from major magazines and newspapers to books and exhibitions. She has worked with the BBC, judged prestigious competitions, and earned accolades including the Plongeur d’Or at the Festival Mondial de l’Image Sous-Marine.
Now based in Cornwall, Jane dives the UK coast year-round, championing its often-overlooked marine biodiversity. She is also a proud ambassador for DYNAMICNORD and Fathoms Free, lending her voice and lens to ocean conservation efforts.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the Scubaverse underwater photography team,” says Jane. “It’s an exciting opportunity to share stories from beneath the surface and connect more people with the incredible beauty—and fragility—of our oceans.”
Scubaverse founder Dave Alexander adds, “Jane is one of my absolute favourite underwater photographers, and having her on board is a huge moment for us. Her talent, passion, and dedication to marine storytelling make her an ideal fit for the team.”
We’re just getting started… come back tomorrow to meet the next member of our underwater photography dream team!

Monty Halls is backing this week of fundraising “Cousteau called sharks the “splendid savage of the sea”, and even through the more benign lens of modern shark interactions it remains a good description. The reefs I dived thirty years ago teemed with sharks, the perfect result of 450 million years of evolution. Today those same reefs are silent, the blue water empty of those elegant shadows. But hope remains that if one generation has created such devastation, so the next can reverse the damage that has been done. The Shark Trust are at the forefront of that fight.“
