Includes: Mayday! Mayday!, The Coast Guard License

The quickest way to determine the competence of a boater is not by his docking abilities but by his use of the radio. Although the VHF radio is relatively easy to operate, there are some very important features about the use and operation that all boaters must know. Included are the different VHF channels and their uses along with information on how to monitor the radio. It provides specific, step-by-step instructions on how to place both emergency and non-emergency calls including Mayday Calls, Securite Calls and Pan-Pan Calls. It also teaches what you should do when you hear a Mayday Call including Seelonce Mayday, Seelonce Distress and Mayday Relay.
This set also includes the Coast Guard License, internationally recognized as one of the ultimate tests of boating ability. It covers the essentials of the license test, advanced piloting, rules of the road & seamanship.
