This course is required by law to
legally operate a VHF radio on pleasure craft or on non-pleasure passenger
vessels and commercial vessels operating 25 miles or less from shore
VHF / DSC is a vital piece of safety equipment allowing you to receive safety
messages put out by other boaters and the Coast Guard. Get the latest
weather report and talk to your friends. Call
the Coast Guard in case of an emergency or check in with a marina to
reserve a slip for the night. Don't depend on your cell phone in the
case of an emergency, other boaters can't hear your call for HELP!
The course is one full day (8 hours) and entails
home study along with a practical session simulating emergencies on the
water using proper radio etiquette.
At the end of the course you will be able
to communicate and summon help from the Coast Guard with the VHF radio,
using proper radio procedure.
QuickNAV VHF instructors are certified by Industry
Canada to administer the exam at the end of the course. Upon passing the
course a temporary licence will be issued followed up by
your lifetime credit card-style Restricted Operators Certificate
(Maritime) ROC - M with DSC endorsement.
