Scotch, I was thinkin' the same thing. Wouldn't it make alot of sense to see who all is out there rather than trying random vessels. This would kinda broadcast that you're on the water and monitoring for SB boaters.
SB, SB, SB, this is Schoolie Monster, monitoring ch.69, anyone in the harbor, over...
I've read up a little on VHF procedures, but mostly just for calling in emergencies... Not sure if this is cool or not. I know there is certain etiquette to follow.
Of course, we can also run a weekly thread i.e. Weedend Plans to see who all may be on the water and where. A Mass thread and a RI thread would make some sense. Then you may have an idea who's in your area already.
