Product Name Snorkel Crest, the "Crest" name changed a few times. In 1947 the name was changed to "Crest Deluxe" but then advertisements continued to call the model, "Crest" while service manuals called the model, "Crest Deluxe." When the snorkel system came out the Crest became the, "TM Snorkel Crest," and then finally just the "Snorkel Crest."
