How about you sound off?

Is there a reference # to explain this?

nc nclevi2 · Jun 12, 2016

Reference is Rule 35(h).

My book says this is rule 35 (i)

Is it just me or is Rule 35.j completely useless? Why not just make Rule 35.i less than 20 meters and be done with it. Rule 35.j adds nothing.

RULE REDUNDANCY - OOPS!
(i) A vessel of 12 meters or more but less than 20 meters in length shall not be obliged to give the bell signals prescribed in paragraphs (g) and (h) of this Rule. However, if she does not, she shall make some other efficient sound signal at intervals of not more than 2 minutes.
(j) A vessel of less than 12 meters in length shall not be obliged to give the above-mentioned signals but, if she does not, shall make some other efficient sound signal at intervals of not more than 2 minutes.
