Abstract:
A buoyant mattress device for a snorkeler. An elongated buoyant mattress is provided for buoyantly supporting the body weight of a snorkeler positioned thereatop in a prone position. A viewing hole formed transversely entirely through the mattress and entirely open therethrough is adapted in size and position adjacent to one end of said mattress for receiving a face mask and snorkel worn by the snorkeler while the snorkeler is supported in water in the prone position atop the mattress. The viewing hole is unobstructed to water entering therein through the open lower end thereof which, in combination with the thickness and buoyancy of the mattress places the viewing lens of the face mask below the surface of the water within the hole, providing the snorkeler with an unobstructed underwater view through the face mask.
