Semi-Closed SMB 15/183 cm

Description

Sending up a buoy from depth is easiest when the regulator's exhaust can go straight into it, and a semi-closed buoy with a duckbill allows exactly that without losing gas on the surface. Tecline's 15/183 buoy is a tall, narrow SMB 15 cm across and 183 cm long, made of strong nylon, with a duckbill at the base, an over-pressure valve and an oral inflation valve. Tecline advises filling it from an octopus in short bursts to reduce the risk of the regulator freezing. On a deep dive it goes up from the bottom as a DSMB and stands tall above a choppy surface. At the safety stop it can be topped up by mouth. After use the buoy, and especially the over-pressure valve, should be rinsed in fresh water and dried in the shade. It suits a diver who wants a tall DSMB that fills easily from a second stage.
