Sirius Signal announced it is providing its Model C-1004 high-performance single visible white color and non-visible infrared SOS flashing distress light to Freedom Boat Club’s fleet. Approved by the U.S. Coast Guard to meet all visual distress signal requirements, the Model C-1004 electronic boat flare and daytime distress flag together provide greater safety for boaters and replace dangerous and toxic pyrotechnic marine flares.
“We have recognized that our club members should have safe, effective and easy to deploy distress signals should any emergency arise on the water,” says Nic Thomas, senior director of club operations.
An included suction cup mount provided for club members allows them to display the device safely above their line of sight. “Our SOS visual distress signal products paired with ‘how to and when to use’ instructions provide invaluable operational safety for Freedom Boat Club members,” adds Anthony Covelli, Sirius Signal CEO. “This is foundationally what Freedom Boat Club emphasizes in its Unlimited Boat Training Program.”
