Channel Islands Ormer & Lobster Gauge – Dual 80mm & 87mm Marine Measuring Tool

Dual 80mm & 87mm Compliance Checks for Guernsey & Channel Islands Waters

Measuring marine catches accurately at sea or along rocky coastal shores requires robust, saltwater-proof tools. Metal gauges can corrode or add unnecessary weight to your kit, while cheap molded plastics easily crack under pressure or warp in direct sunlight.

Designed and manufactured in the UK by an engineer with over 30 years of precision CAD and tooling experience, this dual 80mm and 87mm marine gauge is specifically configured for recreational divers, commercial fishers, and shore gatherers across Guernsey and the Channel Islands. Precision-engineered with an 80mm slot and an 87mm slot, this tool delivers fast, legal compliance checks right at the water's edge.

Key Marine Engineering Features & Field Benefits

• Dual 80mm & 87mm Precision Openings: Features an 80mm slot and an 87mm slot for fast, dual-check measurements of Ormers (Haliotis tuberculata) and legal minimum size lobsters without swapping tools.

• Dual Lanyard Mounting Holes: Molded with two heavy-duty attachment points so you can easily secure the gauge to a wrist lanyard, dive harness, belt clip, or catch bag—ensuring it won't drift away in coastal currents.

• 100% Saltwater & Weatherproof PETG: 3D-printed using high-density marine-grade PETG polymer. Unlike PLA or low-grade plastics, PETG will not absorb water, degrade in UV light, or snap when subjected to impact.

• High-Visibility Engraved Digits: High-contrast red lettering set against a bright yellow background makes measurements easily readable underwater, in low light, or through heavy sea spray.

• Custom Gauge Sizes Available: Need specific regional combinations (e.g., custom Ormer, Crab, or mainland UK dimensions)? Gauges can be custom-modeled and printed to your exact millimeter specifications.
