🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 19 – Conduct of vessels in restricted visibility (Navigation Rules) • Difference between actions in overtaking, crossing, and head‑on (meeting) situations by radar alone • Use and meaning of sound signals when risk of collision exists but you do NOT have visual contact

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In restricted visibility using radar only, are you required to avoid turns toward a vessel lying forward of the beam? If so, to which side? • Think about what Rule 19 says about alterations of course in a head‑on/meeting situation when you only have radar information. • Consider when five short blasts are used: Are they mainly for when you see another vessel and doubt their actions, or can they be the primary action when you only have radar contact?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify under Rule 19(d) what kind of alterations of course are prohibited for a vessel detected forward of the beam by radar alone. • Check whether simply maintaining course and speed is appropriate when your radar plot shows a constant bearing, decreasing range (risk of collision). • Confirm the purpose of five or more short and rapid blasts in Rule 34 and whether that signal alone satisfies your obligation to take avoiding action by radar.
