Boating in Canada, Part II
Even though Canadian safety regulations require different equipment
aboard a boat than US regulations do, any US boat visiting Canada will
be considered legally equipped if it meets the US standards for vessels
of its size. |

| Other than the fire axe requirement, what are the major differences? Varies by size of course, but there are differences in the types and
number of flares, a waterproof flashlight is often required, the
compass is required to be accurately swung and adjusted, and in certain
situations a radar reflector is required, not merely suggested. Complete details: http://www.tc.gc.ca/BoatingSafety/equipment.htm |

Flare launcher? |
