if you have a radio in your boat you should always monitor channel 16, 16 is also the hailing frequency . the reason all boater are supposed to monitor 16 is so if there is a emergency all with range can respond , your closest help when on the water is your fellow boaters. if you are down on another channel you can not here hails.
