Delayed Surface Marker Buoy (DSMB) Specialty Course
In areas such as ours with steady currents and regular boat traffic, use of a Delayed Surface Marker Buoy has become a mandatory device. Deploying the marker buoy from underwater gives you the opportunity to let boats know where you are while you are doing your safety stop.
Boaters don't always recognize that divers are in the area and current can carry you further than expected. Launching a delayed surface marker buoy (DSMB) before you surface can alert others to your location in advance of your ascent. Adding another layer of safety, you can also use the DSMB line to complete your safety stop, which is advantageous in a current or when there are no other visual references. Take this course to learn about all the beneficial uses of a DSMB.
Marker buoys serve a range of purposes and you'll learn about common types of DSMB along with the reels used to control them during the program.
You will learn;Preparing and stowing your DSMB and reel.Deploying the DSMB from a stationary position and from mid-water.Swimming while towing a DSMB and managing the reel and line.Making a safety stop using the DSMB line.
