ABSTRACT:
A combination inflatable dive flag and float that visually marks a position in a waterway where a diver is diving. The combination includes an inflatable, hollow, elongated, slender, vertically-oriented, and generally cylindrically-shaped mast tube, and a rectangular-shaped flag. The inflatable, hollow, elongated, slender, vertically-oriented, and generally cylindrically-shaped mast tube is upright extendable from the position in the waterway where the diver is diving and has an upper portion that terminates in a flat, closed, and horizontally-oriented upper end that extends out of the waterway, a lower portion that terminates in a flat, closed, and generally rectangular-shaped lower end that extends into the waterway, a generally cylindrically-shaped outer surface, and a deflated position, so that the combination inflatable dive flag and float can be deflated and rolled for transit and storage.
