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.
