Rules of the RoadInternational/InlandLights & shapesRule 23-Power-driven vessels underway(a) A power-driven vessel underway shall exhibit:(i) a Masthead light forward;(ii) a second masthead light abaft of and higher than the forward one; except that a vessel of less than 50 meters in length shall not be obliged to exhibit such a light but may do so;(iii) sidelights; and(iv) a stern light*note on side lights.

How can you make the distinction as to whether a vessel is underway or making way from the lights it displays at night?
The lights a vessel displays at night define a lot about the vessel, length, aspect etc. Some 'special vessels' display lights that convey their activity. Some of these vessels can be 'underway' (Not tied up or anchored) but not 'making way' The special vessels are fishing vessels (red or green over white), vesels not under control (2 reds) and vessels with restricted ability to manoeuvre (red over white over red). These special vessels can be observed with their navigation lights off but the identifying lights on. This could be say 2 red all round lights. This would be underway but not making way. Switch the nav lights on and it would be making way. All other vessel types would be 'underway'. Cheers. thescr3am.
In addition to an all-around white light what lights must power driven vessels less than 65.6 feet Long exhibit when underway between sunset and sunrise?
Power-driven vessels less than 65.6 feet long must exhibit a green light on the starboard side and a red light on the port side, in addition to an all-around white light, when underway between sunset and sunrise. These lights help other vessels determine the direction the vessel is moving and avoid collisions at night.
