That's true--about the mesh bag. I read, too, that Blackbeard's will allow you to leave stuff with them while you go on the boat. So perhaps one option is to have your mesh bag with you and ask them to hold your suitcase.

Or I just had a thought--what if you packed your gear into plastic, then put it in the suitcase? I know you won't get as much air, and the bags will possibly reek to high heaven when you open them, but you could, in theory, re-rinse or let air. With a wetsuit, you can always use wetsuit shampoo and clean. A BCD can also be cleaned with that BCD cleaner stuff.
