Default Cell phones at sea

Hi all,

I am a final year undergraduate student, studying Marine Navigation
(BSc) at the University of Plymouth (UK), conducting a study of the use
of cell phones by recreational boaters. This includes an assessment of
the practices and views of a broad cross section of all recreational
boaters, and I would be very grateful if you would contribute to the
study by taking two minutes to complete a short and anonymous
questionnaire. Please follow the link below to access the
questionnai

Many thanks,

Nick Loewendahl

If you would like a copy of the completed report please email me with
your contact details.

I think even a local sailor should carry several types of communication
devices.

We carry:

Cell phone
Fixed VHF
Backup Fixed VHF
Handheld VHF
FRS Radios
Mobile and fixed emergency antennas

Why? If his pizza shoppe doesn't get an order from him at least
every two hours they'll send out a search party.

I believe open flames can also be used for distress signals.

Pretty amazing for a boat that never sees her docklines untied, eh?
