There is nothing we don't like about this SMB. It comes in two colors Orange or Yellow and is a 44"/1.1m long sealed (closed) surface marker buoy that is tall enough to be seen in the ocean, yet small enough to be inflated with one breath. It has a small amount of lift so it will not have a big effect on your buoyancy when you deploy it. The bag can be orally inflated or you can use your LP pressure inflator hose. It has a small, low-profile independent OPV, and a bungee closure to roll it up and wrap it up into a small enough ball to comfortably fit in your thigh pocket with the attached spool.
You can order with a finger spool which is small enough to fit comfortably in your pocket, has a low risk of entanglement, has 100'/30m or 150’/45m of cave line, and best of all it has a 500lb fishing swivel attached so the SMB can twist around on the surface but it will not twist up your cave line on your spool.
This really is the perfect SMB, we have spend 2 years searching for it and here it is. Easy to deploy, easy to retrieve, easy to stow and easy on your wallet.
