        Comments about Dockmate Inflatable Vinyl Buoy, 12" diameter:

        We have a large houseboat on a permanent steel buoy open water anchorage. Our mooring harness (attachment between buoy & vessel) is made of 3/8" galvanized steel chain & is very heavy. This vinyl buoy suspends it at surface level when not connected to the vessel, has weathered seven years of 24/7 abuse by wind/wave activity without deflation until buoy eyelet finally wore thru. An optional reflective band around the middle would be a nice feature.

            We used these bouys to mark anchor chains in the water hoping to avoid injury to jumpers. They look great and are super easy to see. They served their purpose perfectly.
