Diver Alert - Surface Marker Buoy
The Diver Alert buoy is designed for maximum diver safety during decompression stops and drift dives. With a length of 1 m and a reflective stripe, it provides high visibility at the surface. Inflation can be done by mouth, by inflator (LP hose) or via octopus (backup automatic) thanks to a check valve ("duck beak") that prevents gas leakage when the buoy is erected.
