The Vessel is turning to Starboard .
Runaway ship
In the maritime environment, it mean several things: 1. In restricted visibility it means the vessel is making way through the water. 2. A vessel approaching a blind bend in a river can sound one prolonged blast on the ships' whistle to alert any other vessels to its presence, if another vessel is nearby then they will respond with one prolonged blast on the ships' whistle.
Vessel operators can alert the lock attendant of their request to transit through the lock by sounding one prolonged blast followed by one short blast
Stay out of the way! One prolonged blast is the whistle signal for a ship leaving a berth or in a blind bend in a channel.

You are operating a motorboat. You hear one prolonged blast from the horn of another vessel. What should you do?

The sound signals that it is a sailing vessel underway when you hear one prolonged blast plus two short blasts every two minutes.
Foggy conditions....a case of restricted visibility... according to International Regulations for Preventing Collision at Sea Rule 35... "A Power driven vessel making way through the water shall sound at intervals of not more than 2 minutes one prolonged blast." So hearing a prolonged blast every 2 mins in restricted visibility we can deduce that its a power driven vessel making way through water.
