Correct Answer: Option B — One prolonged blast every two minutes

Rule 35(a) requires a power-driven vessel making way through the water to sound one prolonged blast at intervals of not more than two minutes. This signal identifies the vessel as a power-driven unit that is currently moving, providing essential information to other vessels navigating in restricted visibility.
