The International Code of Signals is an international system of signals and codes for use by vessels to communicate important messages regarding safety of navigation and related matters. It covers visual, sound, and radio communications.

Every coastal and oceangoing vessel should have a copy of this book on board. This American edition is essentially the same as the international editions published by many nations. Commercial vessels are required to carry it.
