internationally MOB is classified as a "Mayday" level emergency. This is because a person in the water is in immediate danger, potentially facing hypothermia, drowning, or injury from marine life. Therefore, it constitutes a grave and imminent threat to life, warranting the most urgent distress call.
Awesome tips, I had never heard of talking "across" the VHF
Excellent tips thank you for that, safe sailing 🙂
Fair winds!

Is it “pan pan pan” or “pan-pan pan-pan pan-pan”? I’ve heard it both ways
