🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 24 – Towing and Pushing (Navigation Rules) • Difference between lights on the towing vessel and on the vessel being towed • Meaning of a vessel that is broken down (cannot use her own propulsion) but is still underway because she’s not anchored or aground

💭 Think About

• Look up what lights are required specifically on the vessel being towed astern, not the tug doing the towing. • Ask yourself: if a vessel has no propulsion of her own, should she still show the normal power‑driven vessel masthead lights? Why or why not? • Consider which lights are needed so other vessels can tell the heading and aspect (direction she’s facing) of the tow at night.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 24 what lights are listed under “a vessel or object being towed”. • Check whether a masthead light is required on the vessel being towed, or only sidelights and sternlight. • Make sure the option you choose does not describe the tug’s lights, but the tow’s lights.
