I swim alone in open water. What is the best safety device to take along? A swim buoy you drag behind you like ISHOF? Or an inflatable device on your wrist, ankle, or around your wrist

  • The former (or both). It also serves as a visibility aid. A big risk is being hit by a boat. But if you have to swim alone, there are many other safety steps you should take. I respectfully suggest that you Google swimming alone in open water for discussions like this forums.usms.org/showthread.php and others.
