BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which statement is TRUE concerning fog signals?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Sound signals in restricted visibility (fog signals) under Rule 35 of the Navigation Rules • Different required signals for aground, not under command, towed, and pilot vessels • Time intervals for repeated fog signals (in seconds, not minutes)

💭 Think About

• Compare the required fog signals for a vessel aground, vessel not under command, and vessel being towed. Are any of them identical? • Think about whether a pilot vessel underway and making way is exempt from the normal power-driven vessel fog signal, or whether it adds something to it. • Check which signals are specified in seconds (e.g., every 2 minutes) and see if any choice incorrectly uses one minute.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 35 whether a vessel aground is permitted or required to use a whistle signal in addition to bell/gong signals. • Check if the fog signal for a vessel not under command is the same pattern as for a vessel being towed, or if there is a difference in the sequence of prolonged and short blasts. • Confirm whether a pilot vessel underway and making way must still make the normal power-driven vessel fog signal and then ADD the pilot identity signal, or if it replaces it.
