Not illustrated. 1915 Excerpt: ...or less, and give no other signal. In thick weather or fog go at moderate speed. When hearing fog signal of another vessel forward of beam, reduce speed and navigate with caution until vessels pass each other. STEERING AND SAILING RULES.--When meeting end on or nearly so, alter course to starboard and pass on port side of other vessel. Follow this rule at light whenever both side lights of another vessel are visible. When crossing, the vessel having the other on her starboard side shall keep out of the way of the other. A power vessel shall keep out of the way of a sailing vessel. In narrow channels do not overtake and pass another vessel. In all weathers, except as specified, the following Whistle Signals shall indicate the courses required herein. When receiving a signal, answer with the same signal. One blast means: I am directing my course to starboard. Two blasts mean: I am directing my course to port. Three blasts mean: My engines are full speed astern. Never sound a reverse or cross signal. If inadvisable to accept any signal, or if the same is not understood, sound not less than four short and rapid blasts of the whistle. In this case both vessels shall, if required, reduce speed, or stop or reverse until proper signals are given and understood. When approaching a bend in a channel, sound one long blast. Give whistle signals only when in sight of signalled vessels by day or night. In thick weather or fog conditions give fog signals only. When two sailing vessels approach each other one of them shall keep out of the way of the other as follows: --(a) A vessel running free shall avoid a vessel close-hauled. (b) A vessel close-hauled on port tack shall avoid a vessel close-hauled on starboard tack. TO PREVENT COLLISIONS.--Continued (c) When both are run..
