Možda ovo nekome može pomoći:

This refers to a ball or disk that would provide a round silhouette above or below the rectangular silhouette of the flag--what is known to mariners as a "day shape." If you've got a set of ICS flags, you fly N-C as the distress signal.

The combination of the rectangular and circular shapes is also the origin of the design of the distress flags provided for in the US Inland Navigation Rules, orange with a black square and disk.

dnevna oznaka

U navedenom primjeru se očito radi o dnevnoj oznaci pogibelji.
Ne znam kontekst, ali mi se čini da je riječ o općenitijem korištenju brodskog jarbola za isticanje dnevnih oznaka ( signala ) kao što su valjak, stožac, kugla i sl. a u službi Pravila o izbjegavanju sudara na moru.
