Natural Resources
Lights on your boatare for the benefit of other boaters. If
properly displayed, your lights indicate the type of vessel, size of vessel,
direction of travel, mode of operation (underway vs. anchored), etc.
With that information,
the operators of vessels can apply the Nav Rules at night.
Without properly
displayed lights, the risk of night boating is greatly increased.
