Sos..Need help.
Two short horn blast from a vessel means that she is turning port and one short horn blast that she is turning starboard
it is the same right
you better get off that ship!!Two short blasts means that the vessel intends to leave you on it's starboard side. If you are in international waters it means " I am altering my course to port"
passing on port side
I intend to pass you on my starboard (right) side.
It means a vessel is going to back up.
Two short blast shows the intention to direct the course of their vessel to their own port (left).
5 (or more) short blasts is the boating DANGER signal. It is mainly used when two vessels are approaching each other and the intent of the other vessel is unknown and/or may be dangerous to either vessel. A prudent captain will immediately slow down or stop when upon hearing this signal and take appropriate action.
