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.
