Visual Distress Signals
* State law requires all vessels 16 feet and greater, except for
rowboats, kayaks and canoes to carry USCG approved day and
nighttime visual distress signals.
* State law requires all vessels, except rowboats, kayaks, and
canoes, to carry USCG approved nighttime visual distress signals
when operating from sunset to sunrise. It is strongly recommended
that all vessels when operating between sunset and sunrise carry
nighttime visual distress signals.
Most boats can meet this requirement by simply carrying three
USCG approved day/night hand held flares. You may also carry any
combination of three-day and three night-approved pyrotechnic
devices. Non-pyrotechnic options include an approved electric
distress light (for night) or an orange distress flag (for day). Whichever
you choose, all devices must be in serviceable condition and readily accessible. For pyrotechnics, the expiration date, as printed on
the device, must not have lapsed. When buying pyrotechnic visual
distress equipment always look for the freshest devices possible,
those with at least three years of service life would be the newest.
