Expired marine flares are more than just clutter – they’re hazardous and illegal to discard improperly. That’s where CanBoat/NautiSavoir steps in with their annual Flare Disposal Days. These free events offer boaters a safe, eco-friendly way to dispose of outdated flares while brushing up on essential safety equipment knowledge. It’s a practical solution that keeps both your vessel and the waterways safe.
