Page 31 of the California 'ABCs of the California Boating Law'  states
"Sound Signaling Devices: Vessels 39 feet 4 inches (12 meters) or more  in 
length are required to carry a whistle and a bell."
 
Our Department of Boating and Waterways needs to catch up with other  states 
that now comply with the INTERNATIONAL RULES related to the bell  requirement 
in their respective state IMHO.
 
Thanks, Hal Leahy for your Inland Rules info clipped from "For Safety's  Sake 
Vol II No. 6."
