I have these on all my emergency floatation devices. They are water activated. I tied them on with orange curly laces so that they are free to move and float around. They are not SOLAS or USCG approved but they are waterproof and water activated and cheap. They take 3 lithium coin batteries.

Thanks Jake.I agree that the light would be an important addition but I think maybe it should be attached near the buoy, not the pole. This way the swimmer would be attracted to the flotation. I shudder to to think about finding somebody in the dark, even on a decent night, I often sail

I have had a strobe hooked to my MOB gear since the 1970s. I have never had to use any of it, but getting that in the water ASAP at night, even if the MOB isn’t able to swim to it, provides an invaluable data point to base a search pattern on. My strobe hangs from the lifeline and is attached

Dave, Those all sound like worthy upgrades to an existing pole. It should look like new when you’re done. A small water-activated strobe is a good choice. If you could attach it part way up the pole, it would be great for visibility. If it’s too heavy, it may affect the ability of the

Working through some refurb chores and am rehabilitating my Scotty MOB pole, fresh paint, new flag, replace or paint some of the UV damaged plastic on the float, add reflective tape. It lives in a tube mounted on the pushpit stanchion and is connected to a smallish ring buoy by around 75' of
