Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — Hold course and sound no whistle signal
Rule 34(a) states that whistle signals are only required when vessels are in sight of one another and are maneuvering as authorized or required by the Rules. If vessels are passing starboard to starboard without any course changes, no maneuvering signal is required or permitted under the International Rules.
