Customer Reviews
Water Buoy
This is a fantastic product. The earlier review claims that as the item is a one use only product it is not environmentaly friendly. This is perfectly true but if you drop a £180 VHF into the sea it only needs to work once to save you the cost of the radio, and in the case of an emergency, your life. For those who go to sea I would strongly recomend that a Water Bouy is attached to all non floating safety equipment such as hand held VHF, GPS, Binoculars as well as keys.
Sounds great...but
This product sounds like a fantastic idea - especially for those people who have lost their keys or glasses whilst kayaking!
But the fact that you can only use this once puts me off buying it, as not only is it environmentally bad, but also not value for money. If this item could be used 5 or 6 times, I would buy it.
terrible invention. buy a cork instead
I dropped my keys over the side of my boat. after a delay that was long enough to lose sight of them, the balloon eventually inflated and floated up to the surface, inbetween my boat and pontoon. As i moved over to where the balloon was the boat shifted, crushing the balloon against the pontoon. It burst and sank.
I have gone back to my old cork keyring. cheaper, more environmentally friendly, and it works.
