🔍 Key Concepts

• Navigation Rules (COLREGS) Rule 21 – Definitions of lights • How a towing light is defined in relation to a sternlight • Typical colors used for navigation lights: sidelights, masthead light, sternlight, and special-purpose lights

💭 Think About

• Look up how the Rules define a towing light. Does it say it is the same as a sternlight, or does it differ in only one key way? • Recall the standard colors: red and green are sidelights, white is used for masthead and sternlight. Which color is reserved in the Rules specifically to mark a tow? • Ask yourself: When overtaking or approaching a tug and tow at night, what light color helps you distinguish it from an ordinary power-driven vessel’s sternlight?

✅ Before You Answer

• In Rule 21, find the exact wording for a towing light and compare it to the wording for a sternlight. Pay attention to color. • Confirm which color is specifically mentioned in the definition of a towing light and note that all other characteristics are the same as a sternlight. • Eliminate answer choices that are clearly used for other purposes (for example, red for port sidelight, green for starboard sidelight, and standard white lights), and focus on the color uniquely tied to towing operations.
