🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 14 – Head-on Situation (INLAND Rules) • Difference between meeting (head‑on) and crossing/overtaking situations • Inland maneuvering and warning sound signals for power‑driven vessels in sight of one another

💭 Think About

• First decide: Are the vessels directly or nearly head-on, or is this more like a crossing situation? How does Rule 14 treat a true head-on meeting? • Ask yourself what sound signals are used to indicate an intended course alteration, and which are used only as danger/warning signals. • Look at each choice: Which signals are used to agree on a normal port‑to‑port or starboard‑to‑starboard passage, and which signal is used only when there is doubt or immediate danger?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify under Inland maneuvering rules what one short blast and two short blasts each mean in terms of intended movement and side of passage. • Check when five (or more) short and rapid blasts are required – is this for normal meeting arrangements or only when in doubt as to the other vessel’s intentions? • Confirm which signal pattern, if any, represents a standard agreement between vessels in a head‑on meeting where both are altering course in a coordinated way.
