Operating instructions

4H7: Electronics: Stereo
In the salon in the aft cabinet by the settee “L” is a
Pioneer Stereo AM/FM receiver, with an iPod connection in the
adjacent top drawer. This is like an automobile unit. The
“Front/Rear” speaker control (fader) shifts the sound among the
boat’s speakers as noted on the placard.
4H8: Electronics: Radar & AIS
The boat is equipped with two radar sets, one at each the
flybridge and the lower helm. These units are used, combined
with the electronic chart unit, for operation in restricted visibility,
with the radar primarily serving as a device for collision
avoidance while the chart unit provides position.
Proper and safe use of a ship’s radar requires lots
of practice and careful study. While you are using the
boat, you can have the radar on as much as you like to
get used to the way it displays images, but for detailed
operating instructions we refer you to the radar’s own
complete manual.
4H9: Electronics: TV/DVD/CD System
The boat has a DVD/CD player and TV, a large flat-screen unit. They operate
conventionally.
4H10: Electronics: VHF Radios (Fixed/Handheld)
There are fixed ICOM VHF radios at each helm station, with the
mikes nearby. The radios are designed for easy access to Channel 16
which is the hailing and emergency channel in the Northwest. In
addition, the ICOM units use Digital Selective Calling for emergency
communications. The two portable units operate conventionally.
Detailed instructions are in their manuals.
