I've been reading these emails for the last couple of days and am amazed
you cannot buy what we call delayed SMBs (Surface Marker Buoys) in the US.
They are standard kit for UK Divers.

There are a variety of designs including one from AP Valves that is fitted
with its on 0.4l inflation cylinder. Prices are from US$20.00 to US$100.00
for the AP Valves unit.

Call Runnymede Dive Centre (a very good Tech Dive Center in Surrey,
England) on +44 1784 436909 and speak to Bob or Dave. I am sure that they
can tell you what they have and ship you what you want given your credit
card number.

Regards

Brad
