experience on the water, need some input

Something's not right.... regardless, he should have been relieved that you responded.. was he part of the Auxialry C.G. ?.. I rarely turn my radio on.. just too many idiots asking for radio checks... and fish reports... If I see a flare go off, or see the harbor master or Coasties head out, I'll tune in...I would have reported his action to the Coast gaurd...if nothing else you would have gotten their input...

I thought it was weird. he was annoyed we responded.
My thought process was if he was using a flare in the daytime, it was become he didnt have a radio or cell to call for help. It was a big boat anchored close to shore so if he had a radio he could have easily given his location and no need for a flare.
