In New Jersey, if an operator chooses to equip their vessel with pyrotechnic visual distress signals (VDS), acceptable combinations typically include a mix of flares, such as three hand-held distress flares and three aerial flares, or a combination of three hand-held flares and three smoke signals. It's important to ensure that all signals are U.S. Coast Guard approved and within their expiration dates. Operators should always check specific state regulations and guidelines to ensure compliance.
