Party Boat: Boat-to-boat calls. When you hear your Boat called, put your transmitter on the air and say: "(Name of Boat that called), this is (name of your boat), over." Switch to the agreed-upon inter-ship working channel. After the conversation is completed, say: "This is (name of your boat), out."
Shore-to-ship calls. When you hear the name of your Boat called, put your transmitter on the air and say: "(Name of station that called), this is (name of your Boat and call sign), over." After the conversation is completed, say: "This is (name of your boat), out."
After this first party boat, when the hostess has shown your pictures to all her friends and they have become the talk of the party boat-giving social set, you may find it is no longer necessary to make any effort to line up future parties, but simply keep an appointment book for the customers who call you.See Also Hot Boat:7. Maneuver for the pick up. In some cases, you can approach from the windward of the victim, and let the hot Boat drift down toward him, providing a lee. In most cases, however, it is best to approach from leeward in order to avoid having your hot Boat blow right over the victim. Just slight amounts of power will be needed to keep your hot Boat under control. A sailhot Boat should approach nearly on the wind so that it can luff up to stop the headway when the victim is reached. In any case, stop the hot Boat a short distance from the victim, and throw him a line, such as a ski tow rope, that floats. It is less hazardous than trying to maneuver your hot Boat right up to him.

On The Other Hand See Pedal Boats:Radar is an excellent means of marine navigation and is used on vessels of all sizes, down to pedal boats of about twenty feet in length. Although not installed on all recreational pedal boats, its capabilities and limitations should be known to all boaters for their own safety when cruising on waters navigated by radar-equipped vessels.
The prudent skipper will have a thorough knowledge of the Rules that apply to all types of pedal boats and ships that operate on waters that he or she uses. The official text of the Rules are in the Coast Guard publication Navigation Rules, International-Inland, which is available at most chart outlets. The major requirements that apply to recreational pedal boats are listed briefly here.
