Buoy ARENA Open Water Swim Buoy 17 L PVC, Orange/Yellow

ARENA Open Water Swim Buoy 17 L PVC in orange/yellow is a flotation aid and dry storage solution designed for open-water swimmers and triathletes. The buoy combines high visibility with practical functions: two inflatable air chambers for buoyancy and a waterproof pouch with 17 litres of capacity to keep small personal items dry while training or racing in lakes, rivers or the sea.

Advantages

The bright orange and yellow colour scheme improves visibility to boaters and people on shore, increasing safety during open-water sessions. Dual air chambers add redundancy and stability in the water. The waterproof pouch allows secure storage of essentials such as keys, phone in a protective sleeve, nutrition or a spare cap, reducing the need to leave belongings unattended. Constructed from durable PVC, the buoy is built to withstand regular use in varied conditions.

Suitable for

• Open-water swim training and technique drills
• Triathlon practice and sighting sessions
• Long-distance swims where visibility and rest support are needed
• Recreational swims where lightweight dry storage is useful

Key specifications

• Material: polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Capacity: 17 litres waterproof storage compartment
• Colour: orange and yellow for high visibility
• Inflation: two separate air chambers with valves for buoyancy
• Fastening: adjustable waist belt with safety buckle

How to use

Place personal items inside the waterproof pouch, expel excess air, then fold the pouch opening at least three times and close the safety buckle to create a watertight seal. Inflate both air chambers through their valves to the recommended firmness for comfortable floatation. Adjust the waist belt to fit snugly around the hips and fasten the buckle before entering the water. Use the buoy as a visibility marker, to rest briefly during a swim, or to keep essentials dry while you train.

Usage recommendations

Check the pouch seal before each session and inspect inflation valves for leaks. Do not overload the waterproof compartment — distribute weight evenly and pack only items that fit comfortably. Rinse the buoy with fresh water after use in salt water and store deflated in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prolong material life.
