There are complete manuals aboard for all electronic equipment. Please
familiarize yourself with the operation of these devices during fair weather and
in familiar waters.
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE RADAR OR GPS AS YOUR SOLE MEANS
OF NAVIGATION. ALWAYS REFER TO THE CHARTS ON BOARD FOR
THE AREAS WHERE YOU WILL BE NAVIGATING.
A. VHF Radios
The vessel is equipped with a VHF radio at both helms. The radio at the
upper helm is located in the equipment locker to the port side. Use channel
16 for "hailing" only and switch to another channel to conduct a conversation.
Make sure at least one other person in your crew is familiar with radio
procedure and operation.
There are five bilge pumps and two sump pumps on board. See Appendix A for
specific locations. Switches for each of the bilge pumps are located at each helm
station. The packing glands, where the prop shafts penetrate the hull, should
drip slowly therefore automatic operation of the bilge pumps can be expected
occasionally.
Continuous operation of one or more of the bilge pump may
indicate a serious problem. Please advise AYC Yacht Charters of this
situation.
