I'm looking at getting a "boat" buoy and have found it hard to get information on some of them. So far I'm looking at these:
* Omer Clipper * Beuchat Guardian * Best Hunter Okipa 2 * Sevylor Dive Hunter I haven't had time to look for information on the Beuchat and Omer yet, they are my newest finds. I can't find much on the Sevylor though, some people say it is no longer made, but on their webpage they still advertise it (http://www.sevylor-europe.com/p-36-d...r-sdb120r.aspx). The Best Hunter is also not easy to get info on (some places say you can put 2 guns, others 4, others 6, etc) there is a general mixup between the two since they both have "Hunter" somewhere in the name :-). I a surprised nobody has actually been able to test all 4 and writeup a comparison article, have none of the magazines/websites thought of this? Has anyone here tried one or several of these? I am thinking of getting one because I often have to walk up to the place were I will hunt and I could put useful things on it like my spare guns, water/food, documents, phone, sandals, dive flag, stringer 1st aid kit, etc. It would also allow me to rest it needed. Thanks, Gabriel |

The Banks Board is very popular with West Coast divers, particularly the abalone divers in Northern California.

Agree, if you need a float like that just get the banks board. Ive seen several in person and they are quality equipment, durable, spacious, and easy to use. Never heard anyone say a bad thing about them. The amount of storage on them is ridiculous.

Thanks all, I forgot to mention one very important thing, I have to air travel 90% of the time to hunt which is why I was looking for something inflatable. If I didn't have this issue I would have gotten a Banks board.
