🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 35 – Sound Signals in Restricted Visibility (International Rules) • Difference between signals for a power-driven vessel underway but making way vs underway but not making way • Whether there is a special fog signal for using astern propulsion (backing) in restricted visibility

💭 Think About

• First, decide: once your last line is in and you are backing out, are you underway under the Rules? Are you making way? • Ask yourself what the basic fog signal is for a power-driven vessel underway making way in international waters, and then what (if anything) changes when using astern propulsion. • Consider whether the danger signal is used just because visibility is restricted, or only in a specific type of situation.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check Rule 35 for the exact required signal of a power-driven vessel underway in or near an area of restricted visibility. • Verify if there is any separate, additional signal required only because you are backing (using astern propulsion). • Confirm whether the timing trigger is linked to last line taken aboard or simply to the fact that the vessel is underway in restricted visibility.
