You shouldnt need mini flares as they no longer make them (fire arms licence needed) apparently. Most of the fleet didnt have them last year because of this only the ones that were still in date. Not the best thing to have close to your arse in my opinion sparks near a methane outlet!!!!! Should have some if need to borrow to please scrutineering!

Funny flares are like so many things in life,

If you need one in anger you would like to have lots, I'd go for a nine shot over a three & try & set the world record as to how many can be fired off in the shortest possible time.

That said the wording is 100% 1 OR the other so you could argue the point Ash (Fight. Fight, Fight)

My point was that i only knew about ocr boats entering basic races and that ocr spec for equipment is ok, regarding flares.. i do understand that those boats are not for ocr.
All the best.
