DiveTracker Diver Navigation

Model Scout, Sport

Acoustic transmitter/receiver sets that guide divers back to a boat, buddy or site, with ranges up to 1,000 ft (Scout) or 4,000 ft (Sport).

Description

DiveTracker is an underwater navigation system for divers. A transmitter marks the boat, anchor line, buddy or dive site and sends regular sonar pings; the handheld receiver shows signal strength so the diver can sweep for direction and get an approximate distance, even in zero visibility.

Each set includes one transmitter, one receiver and batteries, with a 1 year warranty. Desert Star was founded on the idea of a diver 'buddy finder'.
