A definite alternative. But for nighttime signaling only. You still need a daytime signaling device. Flag or flares most electronic devices come with a flag in a kit Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I think this is where there is a lot of confusion. We are dealing with two separate governing entities. The NY state DEC has rules and regulations that are separate ( but can’t supersede ) the federal CG rules and regulations. NY regs state that you must carry a daytime signaling device ( flag , etc . ) but the CG could care less about a flag so the DEC or the Sherriff or troopers may ask for it , but the CG won’t. They never said it was going to be easy Lol Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

That was an oversite in the coastie’s part. He should have. Expired flares will get you a ticket and perhaps a trip back to the dock. End of voyage for the day Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The CG and CG Auxillary and the SP have told me that you are encouraged to carry outdated signaling devices (flares) as back ups. Just make sure you gave at least 3 unexpired flares on board if someone got a ticket for having extra flares on board , they better plead not guilty and head for court and also file a complaint with the issuing agency.

Saw him on tv. He was on a DEC boat. NO life jacket. Think he was in violation. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Thinking about the problem ( maybe it’s only in my mind. Lol). If I use a counter sink in the vertical tube where it sits in the mount , I could just put a dimple in the tube where I want it located. That should keep it from spinning , as long as the locking knob is kept tight. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
