The Mares Rover DC is a jacket-style scuba BCD with a shell of UV protected 1000 denier Cordura, built for divers who want a tough, no-fuss jacket that copes with boat decks, shore entries and frequent use. It suits new divers buying their first own BCD, regular weekend divers on the UAE east coast and dive centres that need hard-wearing rental kit that holds its colour in strong sun.
Weights go into the MRS Plus integrated weight pockets, so you do not need a separate weight belt, and the Mares Ergo inflator handles your buoyancy adjustments. Shaped pockets keep your octopus and pressure gauge close at hand, while the height-adjustable shoulder buckles and adjustable cummerbund let you set the fit.
This listing is the BCD only. Regulator, octopus, pressure gauge and weights are not included. For the complete kit, see the Mares Rover Scuba Set, which pairs this BCD with a Rover 2S regulator, Rover octopus and MR-1 gauge.

Does the Mares Rover DC BCD come with a regulator?▼
No. This listing is the Rover DC BCD on its own, with its Ergo inflator. Regulator, octopus, pressure gauge and weights are sold separately, or choose the Mares Rover Scuba Set, which bundles this BCD with a Rover 2S regulator, Rover octopus and MR-1 gauge.
Which Rover DC size should I choose?▼
Open the Size Chart tab: it lists height, body weight, chest and hip ranges per size from the Mares BCD size guide. Chest is the best guide; if you are between sizes, message our team before you order.
How much lift does the Rover DC have?▼
Lift depends on size: 140 N on 2XS and XS, 150 N on S, 160 N on M, 200 N on L and 235 N on XL, according to Mares.
Is the Rover DC a good BCD for dive centres and frequent diving in the UAE?▼
Yes. The shell is UV protected 1000 denier Cordura that resists fading in strong sun, the MRS Plus pockets remove the need for a weight belt, and the size marking on the shoulder makes rental kit quick to sort.
Body measurements from the Mares universal BCD size guide; lift per size from Mares Rover DC data. Measure your body, not the jacket. Ranges overlap between sizes, so use chest as your main guide. If you sit between two sizes or plan to dive in a thick wetsuit, message our team before you order.
