What
You Need to Know About Safety Sausages
You ever find yourself on the surface wondering if the
dive boat sees you? Maybe you spent an extra few minutes
on the perfect photo opportunity or in search of the elusive
spiny lobster, and found yourself separated from your
dive buddy or group. As you reach the surface, you look
around... only to notice the dive boat is picking up other
divers a mile away. The only question that runs through
your mind is... "Do they see me?"
Virtually
regardless of your dive destination and especially in
a drift diving environment, a safety sausage can be an
incredibly valuable tool. Visible for a great distance,
a safety sausage can mean the difference between two minutes
or two hours floating on the surface. Discover what you
need to know about Safety
Sausages and Surface Markers.
