What is the time duration between fog horn blasts?

You need to transmit the Morse letter D (-..) with either a fog horn or hitting a bell every 2 minutes. Long blasts need to be 3 times as long as short blasts. The space between blasts is as long as the duration of a short blast. So the sequence goes like this: Blow the horn or hit the bell for 6 seconds, wait for 2, hit it for 2 seconds, wait for 2 seconds, and hit it again for 2 seconds.
