Actually, I was wrong. The zone extends for 500 yards- the 100 yard
*forbidden zone* and an *additional* 400 yards steerage way only.

One cite:

http://www.sailingusa.info/anti-terrorism.htm


You may be wrong in another area. The "cite" specifies Naval vessels not
USCG


Funny; these two references only from that link only mentiono
"military" vessels, without specifying the branch of service:

Security Zone Around Military Vessels

A 500 yard security zone around military vessels is in effect. All
other vessels are prohibited from entering the inner 100 yard zone and
there is another 400 yard zone where traffic may only go as fast as to
make steerage. (A total of 500 yards or about 1/4 nautical mile.)
Boaters who fail to abide by these limitations may be charged with a
felony. See Military Vessel Warning Notice


(and)


DO NOT approach military, cruise line or commercial shipping. Keep your
distance. There is a 100-yard security zone around military, cruise
line and many commercial vessels.

Who's fault is it?
 

You could do that.

And you don't need an amplified speaker. If you get an SH 5" remote speaker, it will be WAY
TOO LOUD just run off the radio's remote speaker cord. I suspect it's more about getting the
speaker up in your face than watts.

It mounts to the top of the console rail with two SS hose clamps. Completely
out of the way.

I'd have to mount it inside the rail...or else my console cover wouldn't fit.

IF your VHF has an RCA plug for the extension speaker. My Standard Horizon doesn't. My Raymarine didn't.

And I think it's identical to the West Marine except for the badge.

I have a 17' whaler too. Mounting a 2" West Marine remote speaker on the console rail made a world
of difference underway.

I thought about doing that, but I didn't want to add clutter.




Here you go. Nice and small but plenty of speaker power: http://store.tackletogo.com/pombvhfexsp.html


BTW: It plugs right into to VHF radio and no wiring is needed. I think it comes in black also. ;-)
