If you see another vessel's red and white lights off your starboard bow, it indicates that the other vessel is likely approaching from your port side. You should maintain your course and speed, as the other vessel is the give-way vessel. However, remain vigilant and prepared to take evasive action if necessary. Always ensure you are following the rules of the road for navigation to avoid collisions.

What lights sailboat have?
Sailboats are typically equipped with several key navigation lights to ensure safety and visibility at night or in low-light conditions. These include a white stern light at the back, red and green sidelights at the bow (port and starboard, respectively), and an all-round white light for anchored vessels. Additionally, larger sailboats may have masthead lights and signal lights for specific maneuvers. The arrangement and color of these lights help other vessels determine the sailboat's direction and status.
