Besides the standard red and green running lights what other lights do ship's display when under way?

All power vessels must have a white Stern light. Rules differ slightly between power boats and sailing vessels, where sailing vessels can have both their port, starboard and stern lights on their mast. An all around white light denotes a vessel at anchor. If a vessel is longer then I think its 200', then they must have two all around white lights, one forward and one aft in addition to their red and green navigation lights. Vessels towing have a yellow light which signifies they are towing. They also have the back white light. The white light stands higher in the air its usually on a post or something so it could be higher in the air.


Can the olympic flag fly higher then the American flag?

Of course it can. All you have to do is attach it to a taller flag pole.Another View: (in the US) No. The rules of flag etiquette of the United states deem that when displayed along with other flags on a single pole, the US flag should be displayed at the highest position on the pole, and when in a grouping of multiple flagpoles, the US flag should be displayed higher than any other flag. These flag rules apply only in the US and its territories, of course, other nations may have differing rules.
