🔍 Key Concepts

• Distress and lifesaving signals used between shore and ships • Difference between distress signals ("I need help") and landing/approach signals ("come here" or "land here") • Use of flags, lights, and pyrotechnics in emergency communications

💭 Think About

• Which of these choices sounds like a "location/landing guidance" signal from people on shore, rather than just a general distress or identification signal? • Think about which signal can be easily repeated and clearly seen from shore to a vessel during the day, without needing special equipment. • Compare which options are usually associated with night-time pyrotechnic distress, and which are more like visual hand/flag motions used by rescuers on a beach.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is primarily a nighttime pyrotechnic signal versus a daytime visual signal. • Consider which signal could be used by rescuers on shore to direct a lifeboat or liferaft to a safe landing spot. • Verify from distress-communication references which signal specifically means "this is the best place to land", not just "I am in distress" or "I am sending a message."
