🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 24 – Towing and Pushing (power-driven vessel when towing or pushing another vessel) • Difference between pushing ahead and towing alongside for light requirements • Whether a composite unit (rigidly connected) is treated as one vessel or separate units under the Rules

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When a tug pushes barges rigidly ahead, are the tug and barges considered a single composite unit or multiple vessels for lighting purposes? • Think about which vessel in the towing configuration is responsible for showing sidelights and sternlight, and whether barges ahead need those lights individually. • Consider whether every barge must be fully lighted like an independent power-driven vessel, or if there is a special provision when they are being pushed ahead as a unit.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check in Rule 24 what it says about a vessel being pushed ahead and when it forms a composite unit. • Verify which vessel in the combination must display sidelights and sternlight in a pushing-ahead situation. • Confirm if the rules require barges ahead to be lighted individually as separate units or allowed to be treated as a single vessel for lighting.
