Our thanks to Roger Long for this excellent flowchart for your VHF radio. Roger is responding to LNM: REMINDER: Channel 16 is Not for Chit Chat. The radio flowchart should be taped to your VHF.

Have actually you tried using your horn?
Usually when I have, I got a finger because people think I'm just saying "Get out of my way" and not which side I intend to pass. Almost nobody on the water knows what the signals mean. I have no idea whether they do or not and thus no idea which way they will turn. In much of the waterway, it is also annoying to people who live on the shore.
Use your horn for passing another boat.
