Up here its volutary for pleasure craft but if you have a radio then a
radio licence is mandatory. Check what your local/national requirements
are. And also look into digital radios and their licencing too.

You could be right, Ron.

I don't think that my 22 ft'r would require a radio, and I will check
out the idea of licensing, But I'll check out what the Coast Guard has
to say about it.

Thanks!

If other on a small lake, you need a VHF. May not be required, but needed.
If you have problems, and do not know exactly where you are, and use a cell
phone, you are going to possibly be looked for, for a long time. And how do
you hail another boat nearby? You have his cell number?

I really didn't think so. But I am going to check out all the
"ins&outs" about one. Yes, I do plan on getting a VHF, because, This
summer, we'll probably be taking a river cruise on either the Illinois,
or the Ohio river. and yes, there is some barge traffic. And good to
have anyhow. Otherwise it really wouldn't be that big of a deal, if
all we were to do is putter around on Carlyle lake....

As a recreational boater, you don't need a license to operate VHF.

Of course - you need a license to go to the bathroom in Canada.


Depends on what you're doin' in there!
