For boat tethering, attach the tether from the boat's tag line or anchor line to the side tether attachment point on the
Descent™ S1 buoy.
For divers towing the buoy, attach the tether from a surface marker buoy to the side tether attachment point on the
Descent S1 buoy, with the diver's reel tied off to the surface marker buoy.
To anchor the buoy, attach the tether from the anchor to the bottom tether attachment point on the
Descent S1 buoy. For visibility, attach another tether from a surface marker buoy to the side tether attachment point on the
Descent S1 buoy. Do not attach a flag directly to the buoy.
For best results and to maximize connectivity, position the buoy within 60 m (197 ft.) of surface support and in the direction of the dive site.
Make sure that the buoy has a clear line of sight to the divers below the surface. Any obstructions, such as the boat hull or underwater objects, can interfere with sending and receiving data.
