🔍 Key Concepts

• Inland Navigation Rules – Sound and Light Signals (Rule 34) • Difference between INTENT signals (what you plan to do) and MANEUVERING REPORTS (what you are actually doing) • Specific Inland meaning of one short blast in a crossing or meeting situation

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Under the Inland Rules, does one short blast describe your actual present action, or what you intend to do relative to the other vessel? • Think: In a crossing situation, when you use one short blast, how are you telling the other vessel you plan to pass – on which side will you leave them? • Compare the words “intend” vs “am altering” and decide which phrasing matches Rule 34 for Inland maneuvering signals.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 34 that Inland one short blast is an intent signal describing how you will pass the other vessel. • Check which side (port or starboard) is associated with one short blast versus two short blasts under the Inland Rules. • Confirm that some answer choices describe what you are doing right now, while others describe what you plan to do – Rule 34 uses one of those styles.
