Hi all,

Venturing into Deeperblue forums! Have been a spearfishing.com reader for a few years but advised to join the the Deeperblue forums by Alison who was also a regular on the spearfishing.com site (sadly I am aware of the terrible news) as there are a few more UK spearos here.

I'm after a flag and pole to mount to my Omer Speed Hunter (I lost the flag this season). The base plate is still mounted on the speed hunter and did accomodate a threaded (large thread) plastic pole and flag.

I can of course remove the plate and fill the holes but was hoping to source a similar style flag so I do not have to remove the original base plate. Omer say the speedhunter is not their product and forwarded me to "bestdivers". "Bestdivers" have forwarded me to "bestdiversusa" web page but I can't find any flag poles. So my only option seems to be to find my own baseplate and flag.

Any ideas from who I might get such a thing? I've done some web searching but come up with nothing!.. I don't really want to buy a torpedo / marker bouy just for the mounting plate, pole and flag. Without the flag the speedhunter attracts even more boat trafic!

Thanks all!

finally!.. not worth a thread on its own, but as a newbie here I cannot find a quick way to view "new posts since your last visit". Is there one? Thanks.
 
Hi Pav

I lost the alpha flag from my Cressi-sub buoy, and to replace it I used a small nylon Flag from the local chandlers and the top from an old fishing rod. The flag simply tied to the top with attached loop and I used a Cable tie to secure the bottom.
I am sure that you could work out something if you got a flag.
