Visual Distress Signals
All boats over 16 feet (4.8 meters) must have onboard day and
night visual distress signals when operating on coastal waters, the
Great Lakes, territorial seas or those waters directly connected to
them, up to a point where the body of water is less than two miles
wide. Carry several types of signaling devices to handle a variety of
conditions. Your Correct Craft Dealer can help you select
appropriate visual distress signals for your area.
If you are required to carry distress signals, you must have three
USCG approved pyrotechnic devices. Be sure they are in
serviceable condition, not exceeding the expiration date and
stored in a cool, dry location in a waterproof container. Have
enough signals on board to last three days.
