🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 9 – Narrow Channels (International Rules) and how overtaking is handled there • The difference between Intention signals (from the overtaking vessel) and Agreement/Reply signals (from the vessel being overtaken) • Which sound signal pattern is used to say “I agree to be overtaken on that side” under the International Rules

💭 Think About

• First, recall: what sound does the overtaking vessel give internationally to say “I intend to overtake you on your starboard side”? Now, is your reply the same signal, or a different confirmation pattern? • Look carefully at the answer choices: which of these patterns looks like a response/acknowledgment rather than an initial maneuvering signal? • Think about the use of prolonged vs. short blasts: which combinations are typically used for maneuvering vs. signals in restricted visibility or special confirmations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in the International narrow channel overtaking rule what the stand-on vessel (the vessel being overtaken) must sound to indicate agreement. • Be sure you are NOT mixing Inland and International sound signal requirements — the question is INTERNATIONAL ONLY. • Check that the pattern you pick is explicitly described in the rule as the signal by the vessel to be overtaken to indicate agreement with the proposed passing side.
