Scuba Choice Scuba Diving Deluxe Diver below Inflatable Float and Flag Bouy

I've used this dive bouy for a full season and it has work fairly well. One issue, on a windy day you will need to set a weight or rock inside the donut so it does not tip over. Other than that it works perfectly and is HIGHLY visible. In fact, it blew out of the boat in route to a dive site without us noticing. Another boater at the dive site spotted it drifting across the lake and asked us if there was really a diver out there in the middle of the lake. lol. Dive bouy recovered.

So I haven’t used it in the water but it seems like I wouldn’t have many issues. I like that the flag isn’t a cloth flag, it’s a vinyl material kinda like what an air mattress is made of. Also, it has a center pouch. You can hold like 4-5 soda cans in it in case you are wondering what size it is. I guess it would be good to stick I light in it for night diving. I know someone mentioned that the flag holder is crappy but maybe homeboy got a bad one because this one is straight. In the pics, I put it next to my aluminum 80 tank for a size reference, So it’s not that small. When folded up, I’d say it takes up the same space as a pair of rolled up jeans. Seems like it would be easy to patch if it ever got punctured as well. Over; I’m with it. Ohh ya, and if you get this float, or any with a rubber clip ring to attach your reel to, make sure you use a snap ring or a carabeaner to attach it; it you tie your string directly to the rubber piece at the bottom of the float, the waves may cause the string on the reel to cut through the rubber like a saw, so attach some sort of smooth clip to the bottom rubber piece so your float lasts a long time

Towed it out on my kayak no problem following my husband who was diving , he took it into the ocean too and no issues . Works great and it’s very stable . He had no issues pulling it to where he was diving

We swim nearly every day in the Caribbean off a boat. There is a constant risk of being run over by dinghies and other powered vessels. These buoys are much many, many times visible than the standard swim buoys and do not add any significant drag while swimming. You'll need to make a simple web belt and an attachment tether.We just took the web belt and attachment tether from our smaller swim buoys and used those and retired the smaller buoys.

I attached a 1Ib weight to the bottom using the strap that came with the product. Stays inflated for long periods of time. Very durable, and works well even with waves. Glad it has a spot for drinks or general storage in the middle. Excited to continue using this.The reviews scared me, but they must be doing something wrong because this product is great. Read the instructions if your flag doesn't stay up. Mine hasn't had any issues!
