CHAPTER 5: NAVIGATION & COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT
The owner’s packet contains manuals for all navigation & communication equipment installed on your boat. Thor-
oughly read and understand these manuals before using these systems for the first time and observe the following:
VHF Radio
Your boat may include a VHF (Very High Frequency) radio. The VHF radio can be used to access weather reports,
summon assistance or contact other vessels as permitted by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission). Con-
tact the FCC for licensing, rules and regulations concerning VHF radio usage.
Compass
Depth Finder
Global Positioning System (GPS) (If Equipped)

•
Compass accuracy can be affected by many factors.
•
Have a qualified technician calibrate your compass.
•
Make sure the technician gives you a deviation card which shows the corrections to apply in
navigational calculations.
•
Keep a copy of the deviation card at each helm.
•
DO NOT use the depth finder as a navigational aid to prevent collision, grounding, boat
damage or personal injury.
•
When the boat is moving, submerged objects will not be seen until they are already under
the boat.
•
Bottom depths may change too quickly to allow time for the boat to react.
•
If you suspect shallow water or submerged objects, run the boat at very slow speeds.

•
The GPS system should not be relied upon as the only aid to navigation.
•
A qualified operator must monitor the GPS system at all times and keep look-out for other
marine traffic and possible collision situations.
