The next area, safety and navigational lighting closely
follows Coast Guard regulations regarding safety and
navigational lights. They are as follows:
Side Marker Lights
All Around Light
Stern Light
Spotlight (option)
The first three in the list are involved in Navigational
Lighting. These lights are powered from the MDP. The
side marker lights are the red and green light on each
side of the boat, the all around light is the mast light
(sometimes called).
The all around light serves two functions, it lights up in
front if you are underway and the front and back light up
if you are anchored.

on the transom of the boat, and also powered from the
MDP.
The spotlight (option) is usually mounted at the fwd part
of the hardtop, it is powered from the helm station and
the controls are located on the helm.
