Mares Sailor Snorkel – Professional Comfort for Diving and Snorkeling

The Mares Sailor Semi-Dry Snorkel is a top-tier choice for both recreational snorkelers and serious SCUBA divers. Engineered with a high-performance Semi-Dry top, this model significantly reduces water entry from splashes and waves, ensuring a smooth and dry breathing experience at the surface.

Key Benefits of the Mares Sailor:

• Advanced Semi-Dry Top: Designed to deflect surface water, keeping the tube dry even in choppy sea conditions.
• Efficient Purge Valve: The large-diameter lower valve allows for effortless clearing – one quick exhale is all it takes to expel any trapped water.
• High-Grade Silicone Mouthpiece: Anatomic design made from soft silicone to eliminate jaw fatigue during long underwater adventures.
• Flexible Corrugated Hose: The lower flex section ensures the snorkel drops away from the face when using a SCUBA regulator, providing maximum versatility.
• Quick-Adjust Snorkel Keeper: A reliable and easy-to-use clip that securely attaches to any mask strap.

User Instructions

1. Clip the snorkel to the left side of your mask strap using the quick-release keeper.
2. Adjust the position so the mouthpiece rests naturally in your mouth without pulling.
3. Maintain a relaxed head position while swimming on the surface.
4. If water enters, clear it by performing a sharp "puff" exhale through the mouthpiece.

Maintenance & Longevity

To ensure your Mares Sailor lasts for years, always rinse it with fresh water after use in salt or chlorinated pools. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct UV rays to prevent the silicone from aging. Periodically check the purge valve for any sand or debris.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Mares Sailor a "Dry" snorkel?

It is a Semi-Dry snorkel. It features a splash guard to keep waves out, but it will fill with water if you dive fully submerged. It is preferred by divers who want less buoyancy/drag than a full dry valve.

Will it fit any mask?

Yes, the universal snorkel keeper is compatible with almost all standard mask straps on the market.
