Applications

Required day shape signal under COLREG (International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea) Rule 25(e) for sailing vessels when using their engine for propulsion. The black cone displayed point-down in the forepart of the vessel indicates to other mariners that your sailing vessel is motoring and not under sail alone, ensuring proper right-of-way determination and collision avoidance.

Essential equipment for all sailing vessels with auxiliary engines operating in navigable waters during daylight hours. The collapsible design allows for easy storage in sail lockers or lazarettes when sailing, while the durable polypropylene construction ensures the signal remains serviceable for years of use.
