What should you do if you see a distress signal but cannot offer assistance without putting your vessel at risk?

Upon recognizing a distress signal in the horizon a ship must address the situation by evaluating if it can do something to aid the vessel which is undergoing an emergency. If this is not the case, it must do everything it can to notify vessels which are in the surroundings in order for them to provide aid. This is a common situation that small ships confront when sailing.

hospitality is mentioned many times in odysseus. it is known as xenia in the poem. one notable example is.

here is a poor man come, a wanderer,

driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone

in hall gave bits, to cram his bag—only

antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder

the lines show odysseus disguised as a beggar and shares his bread with another beggar in a weird way because he had to defeat him in order to eat. however, odysseus does not kill the old man and even shows his hospitality.

have a great day!
