🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound Signals in Restricted Visibility (International & Inland) • Special fog signal required for a manned vessel being towed • Why the order/sequence of tug and tow signals matters to other vessels listening in fog

💭 Think About

• First, recall what sound signal a towing vessel makes in fog, and how often it repeats it. Then, recall the special signal required of a manned vessel being towed. • Think about how another vessel, hearing only the sounds (no radar, no visuals), can tell which blast pattern belongs to the tug and which to the tow. • Ask yourself: for that to work clearly, should the tow’s signal come before, after, in the middle of, or at random compared to the tug’s signal cycle?

✅ Before You Answer

• Look up the exact wording of Rule 35(g) in the Navigation Rules for a manned vessel being towed. • Verify what the Rule says about the timing of the tow’s signal in relation to the towing vessel’s signal (it is specified very clearly). • Confirm that the goal is to avoid confusing overlapping signals, so the sequence must be predictable to any listener.
