🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound Signals in Restricted Visibility (Nav Rules) • Required sound signals for a vessel at anchor versus underway • Optional additional sound signal an anchored vessel may give to warn an approaching vessel of her position

💭 Think About

• First, recall: What is the standard required signal for a vessel at anchor in fog for a vessel of 100m or more? Does the question ask for that required signal, or an additional warning signal you may sound? • Look at each choice: Which of these patterns appears in Rule 35 as a permitted warning by an anchored vessel if she considers collision risk exists? • Separate in your mind the signals for: (1) power-driven underway making way, (2) power-driven underway but stopped, (3) vessel at anchor, and (4) the extra signal an anchored vessel may use to indicate an approaching vessel is getting too close.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 35 which specific sequence is described as a signal that an anchored vessel may sound in addition to the required bell (and gong, if applicable). • Check that the option you pick is not the normal underway or maneuvering signal, but the special one used only to warn an approaching vessel when you are at anchor. • Confirm the exact order of short and prolonged blasts in the optional warning signal and match it carefully to the listed choices.
