🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 24 – Towing and Pushing (International & Inland) • Difference between lights for a power‑driven vessel underway (Rule 23) and lights for a vessel engaged in towing (Rule 24) • Effect of tow length over 200 meters and vessel length over 50 meters on masthead light requirements

💭 Think About

• First, decide which rule applies: is this vessel just a normal power‑driven vessel underway, or is it specifically a towing vessel under Rule 24? • Ask yourself: for a towing vessel, how many masthead lights are required as a basic minimum, and under what conditions does that number increase? • Think separately about what changes when the towing vessel’s length is 50 m or more versus when the tow’s length is over 200 m. Which of those thresholds are actually crossed in this question?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check the exact wording of Rule 24(a) about masthead lights for a vessel when towing astern. • Verify whether a vessel under 50 meters in length ever needs a third masthead light, and under what condition that might happen. • Confirm how the rule treats tows less than 200 meters versus greater than 200 meters in length, measured from the stern of the tug to the after end of the tow.
