Bwahahhahahahaha. I used to think you knew your stuff but I'm beginning to
wonder. It might be a trick question, though, in which case both of us might
be incorrect. Seems I remember something about only manned tows having
to sound fog signals. . . The question states unmanned.

G Someday they'll get those signals so an "unmanned" barge can
automatically sound a fog signal immediately after the tug does.
