New Florida dive flag law coming on July 1, 2014

[ReefGuy]

The problem here is that the law has already been changed. All to pitch a product. I'm afraid that now our Reps are going to be a lot less willing to go back, yet again, and make more changes to the dive law to accommodate things that should have been at least discussed before the law was changed.

I'm just hoping this cosmetic change doesn't turn into a road block.

 

[The Chairman]

That's my hope as well.

Last call for any other considerations to discuss with Rep Raschein. I'm going to bring in a 6' HOG Safety Sausage for show and tell.

Good luck with the meeting: I hope you are successful. As I indicated, your initial e-mail to Holly Raschein expresses well my own thoughts

 

[The Chairman]

It was a good meeting, and I think I opened her eyes to the problem we see with the current law. She agrees with me that any marker is better than no marker and she wants to open this up to public discussion. For those who are interested, her name is pronounced raw-shine. I think that they are equally accented.

I have the yellow round "diver below" float with the red and white flag on top, which fell off and dissapeared last week... So I guess I need a new flag now? Which types are the easiest to tow ? I like the idea of one having a pocket as I have an electronic car car and need to put it in a waterpoof case.

This is what I often use. It is extremely tough, has hand holds for resting at the surface (or clipping off a mini-dry box) and the flag and weight system is stable. The biggest benefit is that it is much easier to tow in a current..It is basically a life guard rescue can with a weight and a flag harness.
