SWDA is building a fleet for structured, beginner-friendly tankless dive education and guided shallow-water experiences. A sponsor helps fund a system while receiving an agreed 12-month commercial advertising placement built around a business logo and scannable QR code.
Limited placements are available. Final equipment, artwork, start date, campaign rights, and payment terms are confirmed in a written sponsor agreement.
THE BRAND OPPORTUNITY
Each sponsor panel combines your approved branding with a unique QR code. A beach visitor or online viewer can scan it and go directly to the page that matters most to your campaign.
Every campaign keeps the sponsored systems visually consistent with the red AirBuddy concept shown in the campaign flyer. Only approved sponsor logo and QR-code placements change from one system to another.
One premium sponsor design · repeated on the red AirBuddy float at the front, back, and side
WHY IT WORKS
Each dive system can carry matching logo-and-QR decals on both ends and one clear side location. Whether someone photographs the unit from shore, beside the float, or during an SWDA experience, the sponsor has a strong chance of appearing with a scannable QR code.
Your approved logo appears on a working SWDA unit during demonstrations, training sessions, and guided experiences.
A trackable QR code can lead to your website, offer, menu, booking page, campaign, or community message.
Sponsored equipment may appear in approved SWDA photography, short-form video, course demonstrations, and social content.
Connect your brand with ocean education, Maui families, visitor safety, and responsible tankless diving.
WHO THIS IS BUILT FOR
Strong campaign fits include businesses that want a visible connection to Maui adventure, hospitality, family experiences, ocean education, or the local visitor economy.
HOW IT WORKS
Tell us about your business, how many systems you are considering, and what you want the campaign to accomplish.
SWDA prepares the proposed placement, QR destination, term, content rights, and written sponsor agreement.
After the sponsored equipment is purchased and prepared, your approved campaign begins on the agreed start date.
WHAT YOUR SPONSORSHIP CAN HELP CREATE
Each activated founding system is designed to support one free beginner seat per week for a 12-week youth cycle. With six systems, the proposed first cycle can create up to 72 placements after the program and operating requirements are approved.
