Compass
Depth Finder
VHF Radio
•
Your yacht may include a VHF (Very High Frequency) radio.
•
As permitted by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), the VHF radio can be used to access weather
reports, summon assistance, or contact other vessels.
•
Contact the FCC for licensing, rules and laws concerning VHF radio usage.
•
Compass accuracy can be affected by many factors.
•
Have a trained technician calibrate your compass.
•
Make sure the technician gives you a deviation card which shows the corrections to apply in
navigational calculations.
•
Keep a copy of the deviation card at each helm.
NOTI CE
•
Do NOT use the depth finder as a navigational aid to prevent collision, grounding, yacht
damage or personal injury.
•
When your yacht is moving, submerged objects will NOT be seen until they are already
under your yacht.
•
Bottom depths may change too quickly to allow time for your yacht to react.
•
If you suspect shallow water or submerged objects, run your yacht at very slow speeds.
