🔍 Key Concepts

• Navigation Rules – Rule 30 (Anchored and Aground Vessels) • Difference between a vessel that is anchored and one that is aground • Day shapes required for vessels 30 meters and greater

💭 Think About

• First recall what day shape is used for a vessel that is simply at anchor. Then think about what additional shape is required when the vessel is also aground. • Consider whether being aground makes the vessel "restricted in her ability to maneuver" or if there is a specific separate signal for aground. • Ask yourself: for vessels of this size, is there a single shape, two shapes, or a combination that indicates the aground condition during the day?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 30 what day shape is used for a vessel at anchor versus aground. • Check if the rule specifies more than one ball and whether they must be in a vertical line. • Confirm that the requirement applies to vessels 30 meters and over in length, not just any size vessel.
