This AP Valves Marker Buoy is a massive 3m with a self-sealing opening. It is more than double the length of a regular SMB and is designed specifically for maximum visibility in difficult conditionsÌâ in the open ocean.
Thanks to the self sealing opening this buoy can be used either as an SMB inflated on the surface or as a dSMB for deployment at depth using an octopus mouthpiece via the main opening or a quick release connector pushed on to the Easifil adaptor.
The SMB is fitted with an over pressurisation valve that will prevent the SMB from rupturing during ascent and also allows it to be manually deflated.
