Dive flags are warning devices used by divers. They are mounted on top of boats to inform other boats of divers underwater, so they can steer clear of the diving area or move at a slower pace. Dive flags come in red-and-white and blue-and-white types. They are required by law to ensure the divers' safety and the other vessels as well. They are commonly used in bodies of water crowded by boats and divers.
Weather-resistance: Choose a nylon or polyester dive flag that has been stiffened or coated to make them resistant to water and sun exposure.
Pole: Choose a coated flag pole to prevent it from splitting or cracking due to exposure to extreme temperatures. Visibility: Choose a dive flag that comes with a tall pole to keep it visible to other boaters at all times. You can also put up some lights along the pole during night boating and diving.
Regulation-size flags: Choose a dive flag that follows the standards imposed by the Federal Dive Flag Regulations and PADI. For daytime boating and diving, get an 18-inch tall by 24-inch wide dive flag mounted on a three-foot pole.
