Boatability is based in Portsmouth, home of the Royal Navy. The main reason we chose this location to teach from is that we can cover all the navigation marks, hazards and rule of the road for boating in one of the best training grounds in the world. Please see our Google and Facebook reviews for what people think of us.

We came up with a simple and very effective MOB recovery system thanks to Dead Fred volunteering. And before anyone asks yes it does work with a lifejacket ;-)

    We find it easier to just drive our 17" boat all the way onto the trailer, saves grinding away on a winch, easy if you have the guide polls and rollers in the right place.

    I'm doing this course on Friday unfortunately ive had no training apart from watching your video, Can you give me an answer below is an email I required for my course I'll never work on a boat ever I don't even use a vhf radio I use uhf radio but if I don't complete the course I loose my job bit unfair, so my acessor has send below email but I'm struggling to think what he's asking for what my reply should be please 🙏 help application form and some photo ID (Passport or Driving Licence). Initially I will set you a few questions to check that you have still retained the knowledge necessary to pass the written exam. The main question is a distress scenario from which you have to produce a Distress Call and Message. for example: Your vessel VIKING QUEEN callsign GGDF MMSI 123456789 is in position 54 degrees 33 minutes North, 002 degrees 04 minutes West. Your vessel is on fire and you require immediate assistance. There are ten people on board and gale force winds. What is the Distress call, and message that you would transmit by voice after sending a Distress Alert by DSC? .......................................... Your answer should look like this: Call Mayday x3 this is VIKING QUEENx3 callsign GGDF MMSI 123456789 message Mayday VIKING QUEEN callsign GGDF MMSI 123456789 Position 54 degrees 33 minutes North, 002 degrees 04 minutes West On Fire Require Immediate Assistance 10 POB Gale force winds Over.

    A usefull guide, thanks. Early on (at 50s) you push the distress button once before scrolling to distress and then the 3-second push and hold to activate. What is this step for?

    • @nickedtheboat
      @nickedtheboat 3 роки тому

      It is purely to explain that if you simply hold the button it takes 5 seconds to send a distress, except it doesn't send what's wrong with you due to not having selected the situation from the distress menu, it will be undesignated. Whereas, if you do go via the menu and select an option then it takes 3 seconds to send, but this time you've sent what's wrong as well as your MMSI, Position (providing it has a built in GPS or is linked via an MEA cable to your Plotter, it also sends the Time. Hope this helps. Nick
