It would appear there is no set frequency that is "religiously" monitored as 121.5 on aircraft.
There are but they are normally contacted by Selcall called DSC. This sets off an alarm and then someone might listen to the voice comms channel.

2182kHz would be right but normally preceded by a DSC call on 2187.5kHz.
