Product Details
The kit includes a cylinder shape marker measuring 24" x 48", constructed from heavy-duty vinyl coated nylon fabric and supported by stainless steel framing, ensuring durability and stability. The display is fully collapsible for convenient storage and boasts a simple design that allows for rapid setup and a rigid display when needed. The kit features various day signals or day shapes used for maritime communication, including five types: circle, diamond, cone (apex pointed up), cone (apex pointed down), and cylinder, all in black color. Compliance with USCG navigational rules is necessary, which dictate the use of specific shapes depending on the vessel's status. For example, a single round ball indicates a vessel at anchor, while three round balls in a vertical line signal a vessel aground. The inverted cone is used for sailboats over 12 meters making way with sails up and motor on, and two green lights or diamonds indicate safe passage during dredging. Additionally, a cylinder represents a vessel not under command, and a configuration of three shapes (a ball on top, a diamond in the middle, and a ball on the bottom) signifies a vessel restricted in maneuverability. The marker’s dimensions and construction conform to industry standards for marine signaling.
