Safety check

I stand re-corrected, and stand by my original pre-corrected comments!

Rob - does you reg state a boat length of 39 ft? (Left side of reg, probably the 4th line down.) In my case, my 3372 Cruisers is probably closer to 35 ft LOA, but the reg says it's a 32.

The things that ticks me off about flares is disposal. Talk to the CG Aux and they are over run with used flares. NO ONE wants to take them. Olin and all the others should provide disposal through their dealers. The entire thing is ridiculous. They want us to carry these things, in date and give no way to retire them. I have never seen a hazardous product like these flares with so poor a method of disposal. That is why I am out of the flare business. I carry the expired ones as back up, but I don't really care to buy new ones. I'll stick to the W&P unit.

Off the top of my head at 11PM half asleep already - I'm fairly sure it does NOT meet requirements. I'll check tomorrow (if I remember, since it's past 11PM and I've been running my ass off thanks to the stupidity of one who should have known better - and was licensed to know better.

If I don't follow up, someone remind me!

A road flare.
 
IMO if you show easy access to PFDs and paperwork the boarding goes quickly. As in most of life good first impressions set the trend.

I don't think so. A road flare usually lights on the first strike!
