Regal Boats: Radar is an excellent means of marine navigation and is used on vessels of all sizes, down to regal boats of about twenty feet in length. Although not installed on all recreational regal 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 regal 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 regal boats are listed briefly here.See Also Boat Docks:boat docks-to-boat docks calls. When you hear your Boat docks called, put your transmitter on the air and say: "(Name of Boat docks that called), this is (name of your Boat docks), over." Switch to the agreed-upon inter-ship working channel. After the conversation is completed, say: "This is (name of your Boat docks), out."
Shore-to-ship calls. When you hear the name of your Boat docks called, put your transmitter on the air and say: "(Name of station that called), this is (name of your Boat docks and call sign), over." After the conversation is completed, say: "This is (name of your Boat docks), out."
7. Maneuver for the pick up. In some cases, you can approach from the windward of the victim, and let the Boat docks drift down toward him, providing a lee. In most cases, however, it is best to approach from leeward in order to avoid having your Boat docks blow right over the victim. Just slight amounts of power will be needed to keep your Boat docks under control. A sailboat docks 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 Boat docks 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 Boat docks right up to him.
On The Other Hand See Used Fishing Boats:On boats, power or sail, that have a mast with a gaff, the U.S. ensign should be flown at the peak of the gaff. On Marconi-rigged sailboats, it can be flown from the leech of the aftermost sail, two-thirds of the way up. It is never displayed on a sailboat while racing. On powerboats, and optionally on sailboats, the U.S. flag is flown at the stern. On sport-used fishing boats boats, where it would obstruct normal used fishing boats activity, the ensign can be flown from a halyard rigged on the centerline just aft of the tuna tower.
Game used fishing boats (used fishing boats for trout and salmon) and coarse used fishing boats (angling for other freshwater fish) are becoming increasingly popular. Game fish tend to be scarcer and therefore game used fishing boats is more expensive than coarse used fishing boats which is usually obtainable in most local rivers, lakes and canals. Often coarse fish (which are not always easy to cook or good to eat) are returned to the water after being caught and (in competitions) weighed, while the trout and salmon caught by the game fishermen are delicious to eat. Freshwater salmon can grow as heavy as 16kg (40lb) or more in European rivers.
