• Mounting ADCP's or other instrumentation in a streamlined buoyancy package reduces the variability caused by mooring movement typical of spherical buoyancy.
• Few instruments have the capability of segregating mooring movement from actual data.
• Reducing mooring movement is a significant criteria in acoustic mooring design.
• Reduced frontal area and drag coefficient allow a smaller and lighter mooring.
• Reducing mooring movement is a prime design criteria of optic moorings.

BENEFITS

• Unmatched mooring stability provides the best in instrument platforms.
• Virtually eliminates vortex shedding effects which are inherent with spherical floatation.
• Reduces the potential for the measurement errors associated with mooring movement.
• Substantially reduces mooring excursions and inclinations.
• Significant improvement to depth keeping characteristics.
• Self-compensating for mooring inclination and flow direction.
• Reduced buoyancy requirement due to lower mooring frontal area.
• Supplied complete with buoyancy or purchasers can utilise their existing VinyFloats.
