9.8 Additional Safety Equipment
Besides meeting the legal requirements, prudent boaters carry additional safety equipment. This is particularly
important if you operate your boat offshore. You should consider the following items, depending on how
you use your boat.
SATELLITE EPIRB'S
EPIRB's (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) operate as part of a world wide distress system. When
activated, EPIRB's will send distress code homing beacons that allow Coast Guard aircraft to identify and find
them quickly. The satellites that receive and relay EPIRB signals are operated by the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the United States. The EPIRB should be mounted and registered
according to the instructions provided with the beacon, so that the beacon's unique distress code can be used
to quickly identify the boat and owner.
