🔍 Key Concepts

• U.S. lateral buoyage system (IALA-B: "red right returning") • Difference between light rhythms: flashing, occulting, quick flashing • How the Light List and chart symbols indicate variety of light characteristics on lateral aids

💭 Think About

• Think about whether all red and green lateral aids you see entering a harbor from sea use just one type of light rhythm, or if you’ve seen several different rhythms in practice. • Ask yourself if the U.S. system limits lateral aids to a single standard light characteristic, or if it allows multiple options as long as color and shape/numbering rules are followed. • Consider whether the exam is testing you on the light rhythm definition of each choice, or on what combinations are permitted on lateral aids.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether lateral aids (red and green buoys and beacons marking channel sides) are restricted to only one of these light types. • Check in the Light List or study materials whether flashing, occulting, and quick flashing can all be used on lateral marks, depending on the situation. • Confirm that the question asks what characteristics they will display generally, not which is the only correct rhythm.
