One prolonged blast plus two short blasts every two minutes. Explanation: Sound signals let other boaters know where you are located during periods of restricted visibility, such as extreme fog. If you hear the fog signal of a vessel you cannot see, slow to a minimum speed until you are sure there is not a risk of collision. One prolonged blast plus two short blasts at intervals of not more than two minutes is the signal used by sailing vessels.
