Flares - how to use them

Flares are an essential piece of safety equipment in sheltered and open waters in Tasmania but few boaties know how to use them. Please take some time to look at the video so you have an idea how they work should you get into trouble. Please also read the instructions on your own flares next time you are on the boat.

What about alone in the Snowy mountains? CanI get them in Japan?

Every boatie needs to use a flare at least once before they actually need it.

After watching so many episodes of “I shouldn’t be alive”, I’m now learning about the importance of flares. 😅
