🔍 Key Concepts

• Navigation Rules – Part D (Sound and Light Signals), Rule 35 – Sound signals in restricted visibility • Difference between a vessel at anchor and a vessel aground in fog signals • Use of bell (forward) and gong (aft) on larger vessels at anchor or aground

💭 Think About

• First decide: in fog, what is the standard sound signal for a vessel at anchor? Which instrument (bell or gong) and what pattern of ringing is normally used? • Next, think: what extra sound (if any) must be added to show that the vessel is not just anchored but actually aground? Where in Rule 35 is this described? • Consider whether a short blast or prolonged blast on the whistle alone would clearly distinguish an aground vessel from a vessel merely at anchor.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 35 the exact wording for a vessel at anchor and then the added requirement for a vessel aground • Check which one – bell or gong – is specifically mentioned in connection with the “three distinct strokes” requirement • Confirm that any required additional signal for aground is in addition to, not instead of, the normal at‑anchor signal pattern.
