A power-driven vessel of less than 12 meters in length may show an all-round white light in lieu of the masthead light and sternlight. This all-round white light must be visible from all directions and is typically mounted at a height that ensures visibility. Additionally, the vessel may also display sidelights if it is engaged in activities requiring them.

What may a power drivin vess less than 12 meters in length carry instead of the masthead light and sternlight?

A power-driven vessel less than 12 meters in length may carry an all-round white light instead of the standard masthead light and sternlight. This all-round white light must be visible from all directions and should be positioned at or near the highest point of the vessel to ensure visibility. Additionally, the vessel should display side lights when operating between sunset and sunrise.

What does a single white light on a boat tell you when boating at night?

Lighting requirements vary depending on whether you're talking about a sailboat or powerboat, International Rules or Inland Rules, the length of the vessel, and whether or not the vessel is at anchor. However, if at night you see a single white light only (no red or green lights), you're most likely looking at a boat at anchor.


If you see a red green and white light in a another boat what does this tell you?

The red (port) and green (starboard) are running lights and can tell you which direction the boat is heading in low visibility conditions. Remember the phrase, "red right returning," which means if the red light is on the right, the boat is returning, or headed towards you. The white light can be a masthead light or a sternlight, and its requirements vary depending on boat length and whether you're operating under international or inland rules.
