Lights and Lighted Structures
Maneuvering a boat at night can be dangerous
and confusing. To aid boaters with navigation and
to warn of hazards, the USCG and state and local
authorities maintain a variety of light structures.
Some light structures are equipped with radio
beacons, radar reflectors and/or fog signals.
Minor Lights
Minor lights are colored according to the buoyage
marking system in use. They are similar to lighted
buoys, except they are usually higher and on
more stable platforms to increase visibility. Most
minor lights are part of a series to mark a
channel, river, or harbor and fairways.
Range Lights
Range lights are usually visible in one direction
and help a boat operator navigate safely. Steering
a course to keep range lights arranged in a line
(one on top of the other) will help guide a boat
through a channel.

Lighthouses
Lighthouses can be found at harbor entrances,
prominent headlands, isolated danger areas and
along the coasts. These striped or patterned
structures have unique flashing signals, which
help boaters identify them.
