Linda Z How long is the pole?
Dale M Just email pocket buoy and they will send you a couple extra sections to make the pole longer....it's expandable!
ADAM R This is a great little buoy! We used it when diving in Mexico. The flag is 15" tall x 16" wide. The pole stands 29" above the buoy and 12" below the buoy. The buoy itself is 10" diameter when inflated. You can use any balloon that size or bigger to inflate it. The buoy connects with a lockring on a lanyard, and then to the reel so you can either tow it with youfrom any depth or tie it off at the bottom and retrieve it after the dive. From the picture, ours is slightly different as the lower pole is one piece, not 3 as shown. This one would probably drop 18" or more from the buoy from the looks of it. These are definitely handy to have a round when you are diving freelance, from a boat, or anywhere that doesn't carry a dive warning flag with them (and there are a lot of places that don't) Hope this helps... Dive safe and have fun!!!
