"The lesson? Make sure you know where you are when you're calling for assistance, whether you calling on VHF or a cell phone! I've listened to many assistance calls on the scanner while at home and too many of the folks calling for help had no idea where they were, or were too vague about their position."

This is when a GPS comes in handy..know your coordinates and give them to the MP or boat towing service and they should be able to find you easier. you don't need anything fancy. A handheld GPS works well for this.
