A couple of days afterwards, when the Coast Guard, police and armed forces were searching for them, someone reported seeing a flare the day they were lost. The problem may not be "are they visible?" but "will the dork that sees it actually report it before I die?" Sigh... Last I heard, the body of one of the fishermen was recovered.
