Okay times come for me to buy some new flares for the boat. For the last two purchases I've bought Pains Wessex Offshore bottles.. But I see Hanson also make Flares and there has been a suggestion that flares bought across the channel are also better and cheaper.. Manufactures must meet a specific spec but. What make do people carry onboard. Are the Hanson easier and safer to use. Are the Pains Wessex safer now after the recall. Or is a Flare just a flare what ever manufacture you buy.
Not looked into it yet but is it cheaper to purchase as individual flares rather than buy the complete Offshore kit. Or should i wait until i go across the puddle at easter.
Also any recommended places to purchase.
TIA
