SMB (Surface Marker Buoy)
Manta's new SMB (surface Marker Buoy) is made from heavy 200 denier urethane coated Nylon fabric.  Its compact construction makes it easy to roll up and store.  Unlike other SMB's that can be difficult to inflate due to the lack of structure at the mouth of the bag, Mantas SMB is designed for easy inflation because of a thick seam at the mouth.  When deployed it uses a system that enables the bag to hold air without deflating if it were to breach the surface.   With a lifting capacity of 50lbs it has enough lift to aid a diver during a drift decompression while at the same time garnering the attention of surface crew.  Manta's new SMB is 6' in length and it's color is safety orange or red.
