The DiveAlert SMB (surface marker buoy) features Closed-Circuit (one-way valve) construction, which prevents air spill at surface. Inflate on the surface to attract visual attention or redundant flotation. Inflate at depth to send up as a surface marker. Solas reflective tape (Coast Guard approved) across top of SMBcreates better visibility day and night. Over-Pressure Valve (OPV) prevents bursting and easy air dumping. Deluxe SMB is 65" long by 8" wide (165 x 20 cm) which provides approximately 40 lbs. (18.1 kg) of lift.

Nylon strap handle on top allows for easy attachment of light or slate. 400 denier poly-urethane coated nylon material, this SMB will last dive after dive without issue. In addition the Deluxe Version has Safety Orange one side and Florescent Lime/Yellow the other side, a filler nozzle for both oral and BC LP hose inflation with a small pocket that will accommodate a finger spool.

Comments about Dive Alert Dive Alert Deluxe Surface Marker Buoy:

I bought this SMB specifically for the 2 reflective strips on top. The yellow side can be seen even on really cloudy days and the length when fully inflated is easily seen from a chaser in choppy seas. I tuck this into my back plate pad pocket so it's out of the way. You have to push in on the oral inflate and blow to inflate it, otherwise it's all pretty straight forward with the dump valve being a simple and sturdy mechanism and the 1 way seaming on the bottom. This SMB holds the air in even when fully inflated and it doesn't bend in the wind easily.

Comments about Dive Alert Dive Alert Deluxe Surface Marker Buoy:

A bit bigger than I expected but visibility at night is pretty good, the size helps with being seen too. Clipped to my harness I barely felt it was there and the weight wasn't too heavy. A great product! Had to do some modifications on it but other than that it works as it should.
