🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound Signals in Restricted Visibility (fog signals) • Difference between signals for a power-driven vessel underway and a vessel at anchor • Exact wording in the rule: the phrase “at intervals of not more than …”


💭 Think About

• First, recall the standard interval for a power-driven vessel making way in fog. Is that the same, longer, or shorter than for a vessel at anchor? • Look at the rule’s exact language: does it say ‘not more than’ or ‘not less than’? Which choice matches that phrase logically? • Think about safety: should an anchored vessel in fog signal more frequently or less frequently than one that is underway?


✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 35 the specific subsection dealing with vessels at anchor (not underway, not fishing, not restricted in ability to maneuver). • Confirm the precise time interval stated there, in minutes, and match it to the closest choice. • Make sure the choice you pick uses the same “not more than / not less than” structure as the rule’s wording.
