What type of boat requires navigation not lights?

Answer 1

A boat that requires navigation lights typically refers to larger vessels that operate after dark or in low visibility conditions, such as commercial ships and recreational boats. However, smaller boats, such as canoes or kayaks, may not be legally required to have navigation lights if they operate only during daylight hours. In some jurisdictions, non-motorized vessels may also be exempt from lighting requirements. Always check local regulations for specific requirements.
