| BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which statement is TRUE concerning fog signals? | |
| A) A vessel not under command sounds the same fog signal as a vessel towed. | |
| B) All fog signals for sailing vessels are to be given at intervals of not more than one minute. | |
| C) A vessel aground may sound a whistle signal. | |
| D) The identity signal of a pilot vessel is the only fog signal sounded by such a vessel. | |

| I can agree with Walker2016 but, the Rules do state that a pilot vessel SHALL sound the same as a power driven vessel in fog but MAY IDENTIFY themselves as a pilot. So, as I read into answer (D) the identity signal of 4 short is not considered the fog signal rather, the Prolonged blasts preceeding it is. Very tricky, I did have to think on this hard. | |

| Four short blasts is not the only fog signal sounded by a pilot vessel. It may sound four short when engaged in pilotage duty but it not always engaged in pilotage duty. | |

| Vessel aground is authorized under rule 35h that it can sound an 'appropriate signal' but doesn't specify what that is. Some USCG study material on their site suggest ICS 102 signals as what they are discussing in this rule. | |
