🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 26 – Fishing Vessels in the Navigation Rules • Differences between day shapes for anchored, towing, and fishing vessels • Common shapes: ball, diamond, and two cones apexes together

💭 Think About

• Look at the illustration: what basic shapes do you see, and how are they arranged vertically? • Which type of vessel shows a single black ball in the daytime, and which type shows a diamond shape? • Under Rule 26, what special day shape is carried by a vessel whose gear restricts her ability to maneuver normally?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you can match two cones with their points touching to the correct vessel status in Rule 26 • Confirm that an anchored vessel’s day shape is different (how many shapes, and what are they?) • Verify that towing and being towed are indicated by different lights/shapes than the one shown here
