FAQs

What marine flares do I need for coastal sailing?

Coastal sailing typically requires red hand flares and orange smoke signals. Always check event or coding requirements before purchase.

 

Are distress flares required onboard?

Requirements vary by vessel type and operating area. Many offshore races and coded vessels require in-date distress equipment.

 

How long do marine flares last?

Marine flares carry an expiry date printed on the casing, usually three to four years from manufacture.

 

Can flares be stored below deck?

Yes. Store them in a dry, clearly marked location that is easy to access in an emergency.

 

Do marine flares need servicing?

No servicing is required, but they must be replaced once out of date.

 

Are flare packs suitable for offshore sailing?

Yes. Offshore packs include a combination of rocket, hand and smoke signals suited to extended passages.
