BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which vessel is required to sound a fog signal with a bell?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound Signals in Restricted Visibility (International & Inland) • Difference between underway vs at anchor fog signals • Which vessels use a whistle only and which must use a bell (and sometimes a gong)

💭 Think About

• First decide: which of these vessels is likely to be at anchor rather than underway in restricted visibility? • Ask yourself: under Rule 35, which status (underway, making way, at anchor, aground) is specifically linked with ringing a bell instead of just sounding a whistle? • Consider the standard whistle patterns for power-driven, fishing, sailing, and not under command. Which remaining vessel has a different type of sound appliance requirement?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 35 which vessel condition is tied to rapid ringing of a bell for 5 seconds. • Check which types of vessels are required to use a whistle only, without a bell, when underway in fog. • Confirm that the vessel you choose is described in Rule 35 as being at anchor and using a bell as part of its primary fog signal.
