🔍 Key Concepts

• Inland Navigation Rules for towing and pushing ahead • Difference between pushing ahead as a composite unit vs. not a composite unit • Meaning and placement of towing light versus stern light

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when a tug is pushing a barge ahead (not made up as one rigid unit), what is the relationship between the tug and the barge in terms of towing—are you still considered to be towing? • Think about where stern lights and towing lights are located and what color each one is supposed to be. • Consider whether a tug in this situation shows only normal power-driven vessel stern lighting, or if it must add or change anything because it is engaged in towing.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check in the Inland Rules annex dealing with lights for pushing and towing for a tug pushing ahead, not composite. • Verify what a towing light is: its color and where it is shown relative to the stern light. • Confirm whether the rule calls for only one aft light or a combination of aft lights when towing or pushing ahead.
