1892 Federal Rep. 50 953 Everything that was taken out was taken out from under water, and, after a short time, from water several feet in depth, by naked or skin divers.

1908 Pall Mall Mag. Aug. 219/1 The Italian ‘skin diver’, crouching in a far corner of the bar, was not lovely to see: his reef-torn hands and feet, the bulging veins of his neck and face, spoke of the torment endured by the naked divers, too poor or shiftless to buy a common rubber suit and helmet.

1932 Blackwood's Mag. Jan. 20/1 They relied solely upon their skin divers—the divers' technical term for a naked man.

1963 Harper's Bazaar Jan. 30/2 Many skin divers are content to remain snorkelers, but some want to go deeper and deeper.

1978 R. F. Marx Into Deep: Hist. Man's Underwater Explor. viii. 96 With the aqualung, skin divers have reached depths never before possible, where they remained for longer periods of time, the length depending on whether they carried one, two, or three cylinders of air.
