Whalewatchin VHF channel in San Juans?

Do the whalewatching boats in the San Juans use a standard channel to
communicate? My understanding is that they cooperate so the industry
as a whole is more successful, and it would be handy to listen in when
sailing or kayaking.

I know the ones off the coast of Massachusetts do, and they also
communicate with the fishing boats that go out earlier in the day who
spot whales for them.

It would make sense anywhere this type of activity is concentrated.

One question might be if this is sent clear or coded in some way.

My friend who would know more is presently on a trip.

Happy trails,
