a non powered canoe at night should display what light
An anchor light should never be used while moving.
ANY boat on the water at night must display three lights: A green light starboard (on the bow) a red light port (on the bow) and a white light on the stern, mounted higher than the bow lights.
Spotting a red and a green light on a boat at night is an indication that the boat has its bow pointed in your direction. If the boat is under way, it's coming at you.The red light is on the port or left side, the green on the starboard or right. These lights cannot be seen from dead astern, and only one color can be seen from beside (abeam) of the vessel.
A 14-foot boat operating under oars at night is required to display a white light visible from all directions. This can be a lantern or a flashlight that is kept on while the boat is in operation. Additionally, if the boat is not at anchor or aground, it should also have a means of indicating its presence to other vessels, typically by using a flashlight or similar light source.
Left side, port, red light.Right side, starboard, green light.
Turn on an all-around white light when anchoring your boat.
The red light should be on the right side, or port side, of the boat. The green light should be on the left, or starboard, side of the boat.
