BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which vessel would display a cone, apex downward?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 25 – Sailing Vessels and Vessels Under Oars in the Navigation Rules • Day shapes for vessels under sail and machinery versus other special operations • How a single cone apex downward differs from balls, diamonds, and other cone arrangements

💭 Think About

• Which type of vessel needs to show a special day shape ONLY when it is using two different kinds of propulsion at the same time? • Think about which of these vessels must indicate to others that it should be treated as a power-driven vessel, even though it might look like something else from a distance. • For each option, recall (or look up) what day shape is prescribed—does that vessel normally use balls, diamonds, or some other combination instead of a single cone apex downward?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in the Navigation Rules which vessel shows a single cone, apex downward, by day. • Check that you are not confusing this with shapes used by fishing or towing vessels (often balls and diamonds). • Confirm that the shape in the rule text is specifically one cone, point down, not two cones or a cone in another orientation.
