11.3 ALL SHIPS CALL
The all ships call function allows contact to be established with DSC equipped
vessels without having their MMSI in the individual calling directory. Also, priority
for the call can be designated as “ SAFETY ” or “ URGENCY ”.
SAFETY Call: This type of DSC call is used to transmit boating safety informa -
tion to other vessels. This message usually contains information
about an overdue boat, debris in the water, loss of a navigation
aid or an important meteorological message. This call is the
same as transmitting “Securite, Securite, Securite” by voice.
URGENCY Call: This type of call is used when a vessel may not truly be
in distress, but have a potential problem that may lead to
a distress situation. This call is the same as transmitting
“PAN PAN, PAN PAN, PAN PAN” on Channel 16.
