🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 24 – Towing and Pushing in the Navigation Rules • Difference between lights on the towing vessel and on the vessel/object being towed • Purpose and location of masthead lights vs stern lights

💭 Think About

• First decide: are masthead lights normally carried by the towing vessel, the tow, or both? • Think about where a stern light is mounted and what direction it shows. Would that make sense on something being towed astern? • Ask yourself which of these lights (after masthead, forward masthead, stern) an unmanned barge or object at the end of a tow could realistically and safely display.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 24 which lights are required on the vessel or object being towed (not the tug). • Check the definitions and positions of masthead vs stern lights in the Rules’ lighting section. • Make sure you are not confusing the lights of the towing vessel (tug) with those of the tow at the end of the line.
