One long two shorts is a sound signal made in restricted visibility by the following classes of vessels:
- Not Under Command
- Restricted ability to manoeuvre
- Constrained by draught
- Sailing vessel
- Vessel engaged in fishing
- Vessel engaged in towing or pushing
A vessel engaged in fishing would make this signal at anchor and underway.
All other classes of vessel listed would make the signal only when underway.
