BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND While underway in fog, you hear a prolonged blast from another vessel. Which vessel would sound this signal?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound signals in restricted visibility • Difference between a vessel making way and stopped but underway • Which vessels have special fog signals (e.g., towing, fishing, NUC/RAM)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: in fog, what is the basic sound signal for a power-driven vessel making way? • Which vessels add short blasts to their prolonged blast in fog, and why? • Does a vessel being towed make its own fog signal, or is it covered by the towing vessel’s signal?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact wording in Rule 35(a), 35(b), and 35(c) in the Navigation Rules • Check which options describe power-driven versus sailing status • Confirm which vessel types in the options would use additional short blasts instead of just a single prolonged blast
