SSI Surface Marker Buoy (SMB)

A surface marker buoy (SMB) is signaling equipment used by divers underwater. These are large, tube-shaped devices that can be inflated underwater and sent up to the surface to mark the diver’s location and alert anyone on the surface that there are divers below. They are usually brightly colored. Additional uses include dragging them along for the entire dive as a location marker for the surface team. (This may actually be a requirement in some areas.) Conveniently, SMBs roll up tightly and attach to your BCD with a D-ring for easy storage and access. BCD pockets are also a common storage location for some SMBs.
