Best Answer

Running lights are on the bow (front) and are green to starboard (right) and red to port (left). A white stern (rear) light completes the three lights necessary on a sailboat. All three can also be together at the top of the mast, and are called a tri-light. If the boat can motor there will also be a steaming light half-way up the mast that must be on while motoring at night.
