With my wife aboard I say,

''Honey , I'm going to tack soon'',
''Watch your head''
''Tacking!''

Scott,

On boat, when I had one was;

Ready a'bout
Ready
Helm a'lee

Yep, that's OK.
We mostly race and with a very close understanding of
our situation
and tactics that borders on telepathy., the commands are
often
something like
" What do you reckon?"
"Yep, let's go"
To which the helm is then pushed down.
