regardless of who has right of way. Protect your night vision by
avoiding bright lights and have a passenger, if possible, help keep
watch for other boats, water hazards, and aids to navigation. It is
best to proceed slowly at night, as there is always the possibility
of unlit boats, floating objects, and fixed objects which will be
very difficult to see in time to avoid if you are at planing speeds
or above.
There are many light patterns on different types of boats and
for boats performing various functions while underway or at
anchor. For most applications on recreational boats the following
navigation light patterns are applicable.
(NOTE: Information is included here that does not apply to Malibu
boats. However, the information is included to assist Malibu operators
in being aware of the navigational lights that may appear on other
vessels you may encounter.)
Figure 1
Motorboats less than 20 meters (65.62 feet) shall exhibit
navigation lights as shown. (Note: Two masthead lights are
optional for boats under 50 meters. Boats over 50 meters (164
feet) will display two masthead lights.)
Figure 2
Motorboats of less than 12 meters (39.33 feet) in length, may
show the lights in either Figure 1 or Figure 2. Boats of less than
7 meters (23 feet) whose maximum speed cannot exceed seven
knots may exhibit an all-around white light, and if practicable,
sidelights instead of the lights prescribed above, in international
waters only.
Figure 3
Sailboats and watercraft under oars: Sailboats less than 20 meters
(65.62 feet) may exhibit the navigation lights shown in Figures 3 or 4.
Figure 4
Figure 5
Another option for sailboats is to use a single combination
lantern at the top of the mast as shown.
Figure 6
Sailboats less than 7 meters (22.96 feet) may carry an electric
torch or lighted lantern showing a white light to be displayed
in enough time to prevent collision. If practicable, the lights
prescribed for sailboats less than 20 meters should be displayed.
Watercraft under oars (such as a canoe) may display the lights
prescribed for sailboats, but if not, must have ready at hand an
electric torch or lighted lantern (flashlight) showing a white light
to be displayed in enough time to prevent collision.
Figure 7
Anchored boats: Motorboats and sailboats at anchor must
display anchor lights. An anchor light for a watercraft less than 50
meters (164 feet) in length is an all-around white light, visible for 2
miles exhibited where it can best be seen.
Sailboats operating under machinery, or under sail and
machinery, are considered power driven and must display the
lights prescribed for a power-driven boat.
