??? you use flares to warm up the water? <VBG>
Seriously, much of the Canadian shoreline is sparcely populated.
There are fewer people who might notice a flare and its a good thing to
carry extra to keep the lights going until someone notices.
Good thing we don't boat in the winter. At that time no one would notice
flares 'cuz everbody is inside weatching Hockey Night in Canada! <VBG>
As for the fire axe, you need that when you get shipwrecked on a deserted
shoreline and need to build a big bonfire with.
Have you ever tried to break through a Bomar hatch or a fibreglass hull with
an axe? It just bounces off.
