Night Operation
Recreational boats are required to display navigation lights
between sunset and sunrise and other periods of reduced
visibility such as fog, rain, haze, etc. When operating your
boat at night you should:
• Make sure your navigation lights are on and working
properly. Navigation lights warn others of your position
and course and the position and course of other vessels.
• All navigation rules apply. If the bow light of another
vessel shows red, you should give way to that vessel, if it
shows green, you have the right of way.
• Slow down and never operate at high speeds when operat-
ing at night, stay clear of all boats and use good common
sense. Always be ready to slow down or steer clear of
other vessels, even if you have the right-of-way.
• Avoid bright lights that can destroy night vision, making
it difficult to see navigation lights and the lights of other
boats. You and your passengers should keep a sharp look-
out for hazards, other boats and navigational aids.
Navigation Aids
Aids to navigation are placed along coasts and navigable waters
as guides to mark safe water and to assist mariners in determin-
ing their position in relation to land and hidden dangers. Each
aid to navigation is used to provide specific information. You
should be familiar with these and any other markers used in
your boating area.
Note: Storms and wave action can cause buoys to move.
You should not rely on buoys alone to determine
your position.
