Found a nicely compiled list of boating specific HF nets for the hams among us.

He seems to have left off the North West Boater's net (Port Ludlow YC run)
Which meets at 0800 for pre and 0800 (Pacific time)= 1500 UTC during daylight savings...at 3,865 Mhz. Great net for information and keeping track of boats on the inland passage. There was a counter part in Alaska and I am not sure if it is active currently. There is an Alaskian net at 1500 UTC on 7,193. The NW boater's net was one of the best we have participated in, world wide. We were able to make contact from as far South as Morro Bay and as far North as Icey Straits. (Ill have to admit I run 500 watts when necessary).

Another good source of maritime nets is: http://www.mmsn.org/sailorslinks.htm (Maritime Mobile service Net)
