So i noticed a while back when using my DPV on a shore dive that pulling a dive flag can be somewhat of an odd thing. i was zooming along ~ 20 ft deep thinking that the flag was flowing me on the surface ~ 30 feet behind me. it wasn't until i felt the flag line tug on me that i realized that wasn't the case. i turned around and saw that the line was almost perpendicular to the sea floor. i followed the ling a few feet back and found the dive flag was on the bottom snagged on to a few large rocks i passed. so it would seem the flag was being pulled under every time i was underway with the scooter....... so like half the dive. which means that no boats can see where i am will im moving.
i was wondering if anyone's ever had this happen before and how to potentially remedy it without having to tie the flag down to a stationary point.
