When you see green and white lights on another boat at night, you are likely encountering a vessel that is either at anchor or a fishing boat with restricted maneuverability. If the green light is on your starboard side (right), you should maintain your course and speed. However, if the green light is on your port side (left), you should be prepared to alter your course to avoid a collision. Always prioritize safety and ensure you have proper navigation equipment to assess the situation clearly.

This configuration suggests that the other boat is approaching from your right side, and you should be cautious and ready to give way or adjust your course as necessary to avoid a collision.
