Air Horn Signalling?

Question:

Answers:

Is there ships as big as titanic now?

* One short blast (1 second) of the horn or whistle will show an intention to direct course of vessel to own starboard (right).
* Two short blasts will show intention to direct course of vessel to own port (left).
* Three short blasts will indicate the vessel's engines are going astern (in reverse).
* Five or more short and rapid blasts is a danger signal used when the other vessel's intentions are not understood or where the other vessel's indicated course is dangerous.
* Prolonged blast (4 to 6 seconds) will indicate situations of restricted visibility. See Fog Signals.

Fog Signals

Upon hearing a fog signal apparently forward of the beam, the operator should reduce speed to the minimum at which the boat can be kept on course, unless it has been determined by radar or other means that the risk of collision does not exist. If necessary, the operator should use reverse propulsion. In any event, navigate with extreme caution until any danger is over.

* Ring, at intervals of not more than one minute, a bell rapidly for about five seconds. In addition, one short blast followed by one prolonged and one short blast may be sounded to give warning of position and of the possibility of collision to an approaching vessel.
* Boats less than 39 feet 4 inches (12 meters) in length may, instead of the above, make an efficient sound signal at intervals of not more than two minutes.
* Boats less than 65 feet 7 inches (20 meters) are not required to sound signals when anchored in a federally designated anchorage area.
