Re: Flare replacement

I'd already figured I'd put the old flares in a container buried deep
enough 
that it would only be found in a full scale strip search for drugs.  After

all, I've been dealing with the USCG for 30 years.  Even if they found
them, 
I'd rather be getting my wrist slapped over something that is clearly in a

gray area than sitting out there with my last flare remembering the ones I

soaked in a bucket of water.

Sure, you can just buy more new ones as Bob says but, where do you stop? 
Those slightly old ones could still be the one the ****p that saves you
sees.

I have thought of a good reason to replace the whole kit though.  It's 
shrink wrapped and thus pretty watertight.  Once opened, the flares inside

will be more subject to humidity or condensation.
