Question 936Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND While underway and making way your vessel enters fog. Which fog signal should you sound every two minutes?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) One prolonged blast.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules, a vessel underway and making way in fog is required to sound one prolonged blast (4-6 seconds) every two minutes. This fog signal alerts other vessels in the area to the presence of your vessel, allowing them to take appropriate action to avoid a collision.
The other options are incorrect because: B) Two prolonged blasts is the signal for a vessel not under command, C) Three short blasts is the signal for a vessel in distress, and D) A prolonged blast and three short blasts is the signal for a vessel towing another vessel.
