INLAND ONLY Signals shall be sounded by a power-driven vessel intending to overtake __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Inland Navigation Rule 34(c) – Manoeuvring and overtaking whistle signals • Difference between meeting/crossing situations and overtaking situations under Inland Rules • Which vessels the Inland overtaking signals specifically apply to (by type)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In the Inland Rules, when a vessel plans to overtake, does the rule talk about any vessel, or a specific type of vessel being overtaken? • Think about whether there is a distance requirement (like half a mile) for overtaking signals, or if that half‑mile reference belongs to a different part of Rule 34. • Check the exact condition in the rule: do the vessels need to be in sight of one another, and does that apply to overtaking, meeting/crossing, or both?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 34 which paragraph covers overtaking (not meeting or crossing). • Confirm whether overtaking signals are restricted to power‑driven vessels overtaking other power‑driven vessels, or if they apply to any vessel type. • Check if the rule for overtaking signals mentions within half a mile, or only that the vessels are in sight of one another.
