Moray Dive Gear

The Diver’s Communication Torch (DCT) by Moray allows you to be seen and heard underwater. This combination dive light and noisemaker is guaranteed to get your buddy’s attention. When ScubaLab testers used the DCT in the water, they found the patented noisemaker could be heard from 100 feet away! The noisemaker is integrated into a rugged Tektite dive light that’s waterproof to 500 feet. The DCT is constructed of tough ABS and Lexan, with a nonslip grip and a double o-ring-protected twiston lens. And this torch can crank out some serious light, 175 lumen using a single Cree XrE LED plus some proprietary optics. Powered by only two C-cells, the DCT dive light offers eight hours of burn time at full power.

Riffe

The Mantis 5 and Stable is a winning combo, especially for divers who want a low-volume mask and lightweight snorkel but don’t want to sacrifice quality. The Mantis 5 mask has the same frame as riffe’s standard Mantis mask with a new low-volume skirt offering 20 degrees more visibility. The mask fits medium to wide face shapes and optical lenses available upon request. The Stable is a low-profile, lightweight snorkel with a flexible vinyl tube, giving divers the ability to fold up or stow in their BC. The dry top is shaped like a shark fin and reduces catch of line, seaweed and floating material. The Stable comes with a top-quality hinged snorkel keeper and has been tested by divers as a true fresh-air snorkel.
