Mares Retractor

The Mares retractor is a great accessory to hook something securely yet flexibly to your BCD. The heavy duty hooks on either end allows you to connect one end to a D-ring on your BCD and the other end to an item that you would use regularly and do not want to keep that item in your pocket. A compass is one of the more common items used on the Mares Retractor. The way it works is that when you are not using the item secured to the retractor, it keeps retracted back and out of the way, when you wish to use the item, you pull gently on the item and the stainless steel cable will release and pull out approximately 50cm, ready for you to use. Again when you let go, it will retract back to sit out of the way once again. Other items you can attach to it are a torch, a camera or a back up computer.
