In restricted visibility, vessels are required to sound a signal of one prolonged blast every two minutes. This signal serves to alert other vessels of their presence and help prevent collisions. The sound should be made using a whistle, horn, or other sound-producing device that can be heard clearly over the surrounding environment. Additionally, smaller vessels may use a series of short blasts as an alternative signal.
