What color light on a commercial vessel towing at night?
A commercial vessel towing at night displays a white towing light above the stern of the towing vessel and a second white light at the stern of the tow. Additionally, the vessel should show a green light on the starboard side and a red light on the port side, as well as an all-round white light at the stern of the vessel being towed. These lights help indicate the vessel's activity and ensure safe navigation for other vessels.
