INTERNATIONAL ONLY A power-driven vessel leaving a quay or wharf must sound what signal?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) No signal is required.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS), a power-driven vessel leaving a quay or wharf is not required to sound any signal. The COLREGS do not mandate a specific sound signal for this situation. The other options, such as three short blasts, a long blast, or a prolonged blast, are not the correct signals for a power-driven vessel departing a quay or wharf under the international rules.
