I would like to see a moderately priced GPS EPIRB (Please…)

Halcyon sells a raft - Halcyon: Diver's Life Raft
Always thought it was a neat idea, plus it get you out of the water.

For those that have an aversion to anything "H" related, a Walmart raft works the same and keeps quite a few dollars in your wallet.

Other thoughts were-
A large half ball- hang your gear under and a great radar point.
Also a Drogue- to keep you from heading at strange angles.

Actually, one could deploy their reel with a cylinder attached (or reef hook) and catch the bottom, hopefully, providing you're not deeper than the length of line and scope. This would be a better option since you would stay in the dive/search area.

I also pack a 16oz of water, and a snickers- vacuum packed.

Good suggestions though.

I should start a separate thread. ---- Nevermind. I searched and found that it's been covered here already.
