Bedford Basin Yacht Club
Proper use of VHF radios for everyday communication, radio checks, standard procedures, and most important, the VHF RADIO as the CENTRAL PART of OUR COASTAL SAFETY SYSTEM. Digital Selective Calling (DSC) and Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) as enhancements to both communication and automatic Distress Signaling is covered. And the integration of the Automatic Identification System (AIS) in new VHF radios is another leap forward in SAFETY when boating.
All successful participants will receive a Restricted Operators Certificate (Maritime) with DSC endorsement. This course is offered in partnership with the Canadian Power and Sail – National.
Lunch provided by the BBYC.
Registration by 05 April.
