BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which shape shall a 22-meter sailing vessel exhibit when it is being propelled by machinery during daylight hours?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 25 - Sailing Vessels and Vessels Under Oars in the Navigation Rules • The special requirement for a sailing vessel that is also using its engine (motor-sailing) • The meaning of different day shapes used to indicate a vessel’s status (ball, cone, cylinder, etc.)

💭 Think About

• First, decide: when a sailboat is using its engine, is it considered a power-driven vessel or a sailing vessel under the Rules? How must it indicate that to others? • Think about which day shape is specifically associated with a sailing vessel that is also being propelled by machinery to show other vessels it should be treated as power-driven. • Match each option (ball, cone, diamond, basket) with the typical vessel status it represents. Which one is linked to motor-sailing?

✅ Before You Answer

• Look up Rule 25(e) (or the subsection on sailing vessels also being propelled by machinery) and note the exact day shape required. • Confirm that the required shape must be shown in the forepart of the vessel where its most visible. • Verify that the size of the vessel (22 meters) does not change which specific shape is required, only that it must display it.
