When I answer the ship to shore phone on my yacht, I always say "Ahoy".

"Ahoy matey, I'm about to mount that a-hole", heard by Sailors in SF Bay.......

Bell wanted 'ahoy' to be the standard greeting when answering the phone. Edison suggested 'hello' instead.

I think "ahoy" was the first word spoken through a telephone.
