SOUND PRODUCING DEVICES
According to both Inland and International Rules,
all boats
must
carry some way of producing an
ef
fi
cient sound signal. If your vessel is 12 meters
(39’ 4”) or longer, a power whistle, power horn
or bell must be carried. The bell must be 7 7/8”
in diameter.
Boats less than 12 meters a horn or whistle is
recommended
to signal intentions or signal
position. The sound signal made in all cases must
be capable of a four or six second blast audible for one half mile. See the
section discussing bridge and whistle signals for more information.
RADIO COMMUNICATIONS

communications today. Learn the specialized messages such as
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday

imminent danger.
NAVIGATION LIGHTS
The U. S. Coast Guard requires recreational boats operating at night to
display navigation lights between sunset and sunrise. Navigation lights
help avoid collisions by improving the night visibility of vessels. Red
and green directional lights, white stern lights, white masthead lights
and white all-around lights must be displayed in speci
fi
ed positions,
depending on boat size, and mode of operation. The con
fi
guration of
visible lights tells and operator the size, direction of travel and means
of propulsion (sail, power, rowing or at anchor) of another vessel.
Larger boats are required to carry larger, brighter lights that are visible
over longer distances.
