American Boat and Yacht Council, Inc., 3069 Solomons Island Road, Edgewater, MD 21037-1416; www.abycinc.org. This nonprofit technical society develops and publishes voluntary safety standards for boats and recommended practices for design, construction, equipment, and maintenance of all types of recreational boats.
On The Other Hand See Recreational Boats Can Operate:Since the requirements of both sets of Rules are almost identical for recreational craft, it is not difficult to learn the actions to be taken, signals to be sounded, and lights to be carried when operating offshore or on inland waters.
For long-distance communications, a Single Sideband (SSB) marine radio using designated frequencies in the MF and HF bands is required. Such a set can be installed only if the Boat is already equipped with a VHF-FM radio, and the owner can certify a need for the long-range set. On this equipment, the international distress and calling frequency is 2182 kHz. Recreational boats can operate with sets having up to 150 watts output power; this will provide a range of hundreds to thousands of miles depending upon the frequency selected and the time of day.
Citizens Band radios can be used as an adjunct to the normal marine radios for informal, short-distance communications.
