Ring the bell?

[Woodsy]

The Bell is for use in when visibility is reduced due to fog.... the theory is that the sound a bell makes travels farther in fog than most other sounds. I think you are supposed to ring it once a minute.... but I forget. It used to be layed out in the boating handbook.

I too have a "Bell In A Box" that I purchased at Sports & Marine Parafunalia. I doubt I will ever use it....

I also have 2 MP whistles rated at 110db.... I am pretty sure I can be heard if need be.
