When operating a powerboat at night white light should be shown on the stern and red and green lights on the bow.
Stand on, but remain alert.

If you see both the bow lights, the approaching ship is coming at you head-on.
Only that you are seeing its' starboard (right) side.
You encounter another boat. You assess the situation and determine that you are the stand-on vessel. What must you do?
That a power driven ship is headed right for you. The green and red lights are the navigational side lanterns and the white light is the top light.

seeing the Red & Green lights without knowing what they are telling you means you should not be the operator of a boat of any kind until you learn that they are Navigation lights and even if you are not operating a power boat, you still need to understand what they mean. I suggest you do a boat lic. course before you cause an accident.
You are the stand-on vessel but be prepared to give way if necessary. When you see a white and a green light, you are the stand-on vessel. You should remain alert, however, in case the other vessel operator does not see you or does not know navigational rules.
