Which spoken emergency signal would you use to call a boat to come assist a man overboard?

🔍 Key Concepts

• MAYDAY, PAN-PAN, SECURITE priority levels and meanings • Difference between distress, urgency, and safety calls in marine communications • When a life is directly at risk and immediate assistance is required

💭 Think About

• Is a man overboard an immediate threat to life that requires the highest priority, or just important safety information? • Which type of call is used when a vessel or person is in grave and imminent danger and needs immediate help? • Which call is normally used to warn of hazards or give safety broadcasts, not to request direct rescue?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the situation (man overboard) with the correct priority level of marine radio calls • Recall the standard spoken words used before a distress, urgency, or safety call (MAYDAY / PAN-PAN / SECURITE) • Be sure you are choosing the level used when there is grave and imminent danger to life and assistance is needed right away
