Retrobuoy still being worked on. Looking at the spec sheet, these do use some Buoyancy. Wondering if DDI/Flotec is manufacturing the buoyancy as well for these.

Buoyancy Modules: Tri-part syntactic foam 28 lb./ft.3
(0.4485 g/cm3) – Depth rating 1000 f.s.w. (305 meters).
Three or four buoyancy modules provided depending on
required life and current. Overall dimensions: 12Ӯ x
72” long (305 x 1829 mm).
Specifications
Anode Elements: Mixed metal oxide (MMO) activated
titanium tubular 1.25” x 48” (31.75 x 1219 mm) –
center compression connected. Anodes triple coated.
Number of rods will vary between 6 and 32 depending
on required life and current.
Buoyancy Modules: Tri-part syntactic foam 28 lb./ft.3
(0.4485 g/cm3) – Depth rating 1000 f.s.w. (305 meters).
Three or four buoyancy modules provided depending on
required life and current. Overall dimensions: 12Ӯ x
72” long (305 x 1829 mm).
Main Feed Cables: 4/0 A WG (approx. 120 mm2),
HMWPE insulated & bedded, contra-helical double
galvanized steel wire armor package, HMWPE overall
jacket. Two or three cables will be provided depending
on required life and current (Note – Cable specified is for
fixed jacket applications only).
Cable Connections: Made inside an oil-filled, pressure
compensated junction box. Each anode element is on a
separate parallel circuit.
Tethers: Braided stainless steel.
Frame & Cable Hopper: Welded steel construction,
coated and provided with sacrificial anode CP for
required life.
Power Supply: Transformer rectifier DC voltage is
normally maintained to 24V, but may have to increase to
either 36V or 48V for current ratings above 400 Amps or
water depth over 250 ft. (76 meters).
