Six blasts of a ship's horn does not seem to have a meaning. Five blasts will mean that you are possibly too close to another ship.

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.


What does 6 short blast of a barge horn mean when boating?

Usually the tug towing the barge will sound it's horn or whistle. Most barges are unmanned. 5 or more short blasts of the ships whistle is the danger signal. If you hear this while boating you are likely in the way or crossing the path of the tug and tow, and there is risk of collision. Tugs with tows are much less maneuverable than a small boat and usually must stay in the dredged navigation channel.
