Frequently Asked Questions
What line lengths does the Mares Reel come in?
The Mares Reel is available in two line-length options: 60MT and 120MT. Both share the same tangle-free design, 6061 anodized aluminum body, and hard-coated finish. The two versions differ in line length; choose the option that suits your planned dive.
Is the Mares Reel suitable for cave diving?
Yes, the Mares Reel is specifically designed for wreck and cave diving. Its tangle-free design, secure handle grip, and Delrin reel insert are built for challenging wreck and cave dives.
What is the "puller" feature on the Mares Reel used for?
The puller is a dedicated feature built into the Mares Reel that makes it easier to operate the reel while wearing thick cold-water or watertight gloves. It helps divers maintain control of the line and handle even when dexterity is reduced by heavy glove use.
Does the actual line length match the labeled 60MT or 120MT size?
Not necessarily. Mares states that the actual length of line wound on a given reel may vary from the labeled 60MT or 120MT figure. Divers should check and verify the real line length on their specific reel before relying on it for dive planning or navigation.
