7.6 ALL SHIPS CALL

The All Ships Call function allows contact to be established with other vessel

stations without having their ID in the individual calling directory. Also, prior-

ity for the call can be designated as Urgency or Safety.

URGENCY Call: This type of call is used when a vessel may not truly be in

distress, but have a potential problem that may lead to a

distress situation. This call is the same as saying PAN PAN

PAN on channel 16.

SAFETY Call: Used to transmit boating safety information to other ves-

sels. This message usually contains information about an

overdue boat, debris in the water. Loss of a navigation aid

or an important meteorological message. This call is the

same as saying Securite” Securite” Securite’.
