Does anyone have a small dive compressor onboard,

If you do, any comments on them?

if not do you take tanks with you (how many per person)?

Two tanks (80's) per person per day is has always been the norm for myself. And maybe one extra for a backup for emergancies or decompression.

Compressors take up space on sailboats. If you plan a lot of dives away from shore and don't mind the noise then it might be worth the while.............._/)
