ÉANSKE KRIGS- OG HAXPELS-sKIBE

Som Tillæg til „ International Sig-
nal-Bog“ — hvis sidste danske Udgave
udkom i 1896 — skal der, ifølge derom
afsluttede internationale Overenskomster,
af hver Sø-Stat med passende Mellemrum
udgives Fortegnelser over sammes Krigs-
og Handels-Skibe, som have erholdt Ken-
dings-Signaler efter det internationale Sig-
nal-System, til Brug for Skibe i Søen og
Signal-Stationerne.
I Overensstemmelse hermed indbefatter
oven nævnte Fortegnelse alle Danske Skibe,
der ere tildelte Kendings-Signaler efter
dette System, ordnede efter Signal-Bog-
stavernes alfabetiske Rækkefølge saaledes,
at disse Signaler hurtigt kunne findes og
aflæses; dog er der her, for ikke at gøre
Fortegnelsen vidtløftigere end nødvendigt,
ikkun anført Navnene paa Skibene, idet
Skibets Art eller Takling, i Forbindelse
med National-Flaget, der selvfølgelig bør
iagttages af de Signalerende, ville afgive
tilstrækkelige Oplysninger til Rapportering
af det paagældende Skib. Ønskes imid-
lertid nærmere Underretning om Skibet,
f. Ex. om Rederiet, Hjemstedet, Tonnagen,
m. m. opsøges saadanne Oplysninger i de
under de efterfølgende Afdelinger II og III
anførte alfabetiske Registre over Sejl- og
Dampskibene og for strax at kunne efter-
søge det paagældende Skib i det rette
Register er der føjet Bogstavet „S“ (for
Skrue-Dampskibe) eller „H“ (for Hjul-
Dampskibe) til de Navne, som føres af
Dampskibene. Findes der flere Skibe af
samme Navn, ville Signal-Bogstaverne strax
vise, hvilket Skib det er, hvorom der er
Spørgsmaal.
INDHOLDS-FORKLARING.
Afdeling I.
Kendings-Signal-Fortegnelsen.
As an Appendix to the International
Code of Signals — the last Danish
edition of which was published in 1896 —
a Code List, containing the names of ships
to which Code Signals have been allotted,
ought, according to international arrange-
ments, made to that effect, to be published
at proper intervals by the maritime powers,
which have adopted this system, for the
purpose of enabling Officers at Signal
Stations on shore, and Masters of ships
at sea, to signal and report passing ships.
In accordance herewith the present
Code List contains the names of all
Danish ships, to which signal letters
have been allotted; but, to avoid too
much prolixity, in this edition the Port
of Registry and the Registered Tonnage
has been left out, partly because these
data can be found by referring to the
succeeding Parts II & III, containing the
Registers of Sailing ships and Steam
vessels, separtately arranged in alphabetical
order, and partly because the rig, together
with the national flag, which of course will
be observed by the signalling parties, will
suffice to report the ship in question.
In order to know immediately in what
register the ship in question is to be sought
for, the letter „S“ (for screw-steamers) or
„H“ (for paddle-wheel steamers) has been
added to the names carried by steam ships.
ln case of more than one ship bearing
the same name, the subjoined signal let-
ters will immediately show what ship is
the right one.
