Safety Equipment Check
Checked the dates on my flares and saw they expired in 2019. I know they are still functional however one needs to abide by the expiry dates if verified and there is a minute chance a couple will not work. Just a friendly reminder.

Re: Safety Equipment Check
Fire extinguishers is another item they will check.....there are some changes to the regs around 38-39 feet so be careful here as well.

40' and over gets rather weird as I need the normal stuff but it goes from 6 flares to 12 and then an axe? and at least 2 buckets capable of holding at least 10 litres. Really scratching my head on the Axe thing.

Re: Safety Equipment Check
This applies to where your life jackets are stowed, and remember self inflatable jackets have a life as well.
The trick is trying to buy the freshest you can, sometimes they are 6months old already on the marina shelf.....be proactive and buy before expiry date if possible.
