🔍 Key Concepts

• GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System) priorities and types of calls • Difference between distress (MAYDAY) and urgency (PAN-PAN) situations • Primary digital and voice distress alerting methods under GMDSS

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In GMDSS, what is the standard way to request immediate assistance when life, vessel, or environment are in serious danger, even if the ship is not yet sinking? • Consider which option actually uses authorized GMDSS distress equipment and channels versus older or incorrect methods. • Think about which option would speed up response by alerting the widest range of rescue resources automatically.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which methods are recognized GMDSS distress alerting systems (VHF DSC Channel 70, MF/HF DSC, Inmarsat, etc.). • Check whether radiotelegraph automatic alarm signals are still used under modern GMDSS requirements. • Confirm that you would never turn off key distress equipment (EPIRB, SART) when you still need help.
