Orion Safety USCG Orange Distress Flag, 3 x 3 Feet, Model 925
The Orion Safety USCG Orange Distress Flag (Model 925) is a daytime signaling device built for on-water emergencies. Constructed from bright orange heavy duty vinyl, the flag measures 3 feet by 3 feet, giving it the size and high-visibility color needed to catch the attention of nearby vessels or rescuers across open water. The flag is US Coast Guard approved as a daytime signal, and it also meets the specific boating safety requirements of New York and Ohio, making it a practical addition to any onboard safety kit for boaters operating in those states as well as anywhere USCG-approved daytime signaling is required.
Its heavy duty vinyl construction is intended to hold up to repeated handling and marine conditions, so it can be stored aboard and remain ready for use when needed. As a simple, purpose-built signaling flag, it is a low-cost, low-maintenance way to add a compliant daytime distress signal to a boat's required safety equipment.
