Waterbuoy Flotation Recovery Device

Part No: CU69900

** As seen on BBC TV's Dragon's Den **

A new automatic floatation device has been introduced to help prevent the loss overboard of valuable items.

Water buoy is the first product in a family of automatic floatation devices that will recover your mobile phone, keys, GPS receiver, winch handle, PDA, binoculars, VHF radio or anything else that drops overboard. Waterbuoy is a unique product. It will lift up to 1kg back to the surface, it will stay afloat for at least 24 hours and it has an emergency flashing light that makes it visible from up to 250 metres away in the dark, so you can even get your valuables back at night. Waterbuoy is the worlds first and only high-tech solution to the most infuriating accident that can happen on the water.

Waterbuoy is the same size as a regular key fob but it packs some ingenious miniature flotation technology to stop that sinking feeling in its tracks. When dropped into the water, Water buoy becomes a flashing emergency float for whatever it is attached to, making it possible to retrieve just about anything that you accidentally drop into the water.

Seconds after falling into the sea, canal, marina, lake or river, water passes into the body of the fob dissolving a patented automatic actuator that releases gas from a tiny tank into a bright orange balloon. The balloon breaks out of the end of the fob and continues to inflate. Simultaneously, a bright LED starts flashing which illuminates Waterbuoy from the inside like a Belisha beacon. The toughened balloon inflates to the size of a melon making it very easy to grab one-handed or retrieve with a boathook without fear of it bursting.

Water buoy is the result of two years of intensive engineering development that has led to the patenting of some very clever new technology. Seatriever is currently using this technology to scale the concept into a multitude of new markets and applications.
