When you're underwater, visibility isn't just about seeing—it's about being seen. That's why every serious diver needs a reliable surface marker buoy to communicate their position to boats and other watercraft. Our 4ft surface marker buoy is designed to be your underwater safety net, ensuring you're never lost or overlooked when you surface.
Imagine surfacing after a great dive only to find your boat has drifted away. That's where this high-visibility buoy becomes your best friend. The bright orange/yellow color stands out dramatically against blue water, while the dive flag pattern and "DIVER BELOW" warning make your presence unmistakable. In choppy conditions or low light, this visual signal could be the difference between a smooth retrieval operation and a stressful search scenario.
Crafted from 210D nylon fabric with a TPU coating, this marker buoy is engineered for durability. The double-stitched construction resists tears and abrasions that could compromise its effectiveness in emergency situations. The bottom is securely sealed to maintain buoyancy, and the oral inflation port lets you add air quickly when needed. When it's time to deflate, simply press the inflation port to exhaust air efficiently.
We know space is precious when you're gearing up for a dive. That's why this SMB folds into a compact package that fits easily in your BCD pocket or dive bag. The magic stick tape deployment system means you can have it fully functional in seconds when you reach the surface. The 360-degree swivel gate clip attaches securely to your BCD or reel, ensuring it stays exactly where you need it until deployment.
While perfect for scuba diving, this surface marker buoy also excels in snorkeling, spearfishing, and other water sports. Measuring 6 inches wide by 48 inches tall when inflated, it provides ample visibility without taking up excessive storage space. Whether you're completing mandatory decompression stops, signaling your location during drift diving, or simply adding an extra layer of safety to your underwater adventures, this buoy delivers reliable performance when you need it most.
