Emergency Messages
and Distress Procedure
Keep the radio nearby. Even after your message has been received, the coastguard can
find you more quickly if you can transmit a signal for a rescue boat to home in on.
“Mayday — Mayday — Mayday”
“This is Corsair — Corsair — Corsair”
“Mayday Corsair”
“Point Lynas bears 220 degrees magnetic — distance 5 kilometers”
“Struck submerged object and flooding — need pump and tow”
“Four adults, three children aboard — no one injured”
“Estimate we will remain afloat one-half hour”
“Corsair is an 8 metre sloop with blue hull and tan deck house”
“I will be listening on Channel 16”
“This is Corsair”
“Over”
It is a good idea to write out a script of the message form and post it where you
and others on your vessel can see it when an emergency message needs to be sent.
