Q

BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which lights would be shown at night by a vessel which is restricted in her ability to maneuver?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 3(g) - Restricted in her ability to maneuver (RAM): Know what situations make a vessel RAM and how that status is shown at night. • Rule 27 - Vessels not under command or restricted in their ability to maneuver: Pay close attention to the exact color and order of the lights. • Difference between red, white, and green special lights for different vessel conditions (NUC, RAM, constrained by draft, etc.).

💭 Think About

• First, recall the definition of a vessel "restricted in her ability to maneuver" and how that differs from a vessel "not under command" or "constrained by her draft." • Think about the standard light patterns: which conditions use red-over-red, which use red-white-red, and which use all white? • Match the color sequence and vertical order to the correct vessel status, then see which choice matches that exact pattern.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact color sequence (top–middle–bottom) used for RAM vessels at night. • Confirm you are NOT confusing the RAM lights with those for a vessel not under command (NUC) or constrained by draft. • Make sure you recognize that these are all-round lights shown in a vertical line, separate from normal masthead and sidelights.
