You'll Sound Like a Seasoned Pro On the Radio

Makes It Easy for Anyone to Call for Help Fast

In an emergency, an untrained person may have to operate the radio to get help. Keep our guide next to the VHF, and anyone can make an emergency call to get assistance quickly.

All Commonly Needed Info at Your Fingertips

All Commonly Needed Info at Your Fingertips

We created a guide we wished we had access to when we first started boating. We learned the hard way but you don't have to! This handheld cheatsheet covers topics like how to get help in an emergency, what channel to use, how to phonetically spell a word, checking to make sure the radio is working properly, weather, squelch, and more.

Developed by Boaters and Printed in the USA

Developed by Boaters

Hi! I’m Carolyn Shearlock, founder of The Boat Galley. Our team has a combined total of over 150 years of boating experience, and at least one of us is on the water every day. We don’t just create products - we use them ourselves and ensure they meet boaters' real-world conditions.

Specially Designed to Withstand Life at Sea

Boat-Friendly Design and Made in the USA

Our VHF Reference is made from tear-resistant waterproof paper that reduces glare in the sun. It is impervious to rain, fuel, oil, and even sunscreen. And it’s printed in the US in a factory that is 100% wind-powered.

You Won't Have to Squint to See the Print

You Won't Have to Squint to See the Print

Large print and colorful headings make it easy to find the information you need. Plus the most-often-used items are on the front and back so you don’t even have to open the guide.

Compact So You Can Hold It in One Hand

Compact So You Can Hold It in One Hand

Our VHF Reference isn’t endless pages of fluff—it contains just the essentials of proper radio use. And with a folded size of 5.7”x11” it is large enough to read at a glance and small enough to tuck away right next to the radio.

Can Be Stored Right Next to the VHF Radio

Designed to Be Stored Right Next to the VHF Radio

It folds to a convenient 11" x 5.7" size, making it easy to store next to the VHF radio. So, when you need it, you won't have to search high and low to find it; it’s always right there, within arm's reach—just a quick grab away when time is of the essence.
