Th efloat I used last year was basic to say the least. the rope was the most expensive item. An inflated truck tube with fishing net over it and tied off. Then had a wooden spool fom an electrical shop with the line round it the line droped throgh the middle of the net and then had weights on it. These would then be looped back to the middle of the tube. Seperate towing line but ended up pushing it mostly. When we got to our spot just drop the weights and use it for breathing up etcand hung our snorkels off it.
May not be the best but probably the cheapest.

I'm just about to try my Tribord torpedo float which I have filled with expandable foam. It looks pretty weird because it didn't expand evenly, but I'm sure it will float.
It worked really well  and I got 6 scallopsAttachment 7871

. I bet the clincher was Jim's comment that it could be used as a floating lounger. It does look neat. I haven't found the need to carry much stuff but it would be handy if you need to carry things (water,2nd gun,cellphone,crabs,lobster,... )... and the thought that it is made near Spaghetti's Mum's home town I find somehow reassuring.

 It has been pointed out to me that the above post is rather suggestive - in light of the quote included. It was not intended (I guess it could have been Freudian?).[Rep. for the first person to correctly guess who pointed this out to me.].
