Navigation Lights
The United States Coast Guard requires all
boats that are operated during the hours
of darkness or when visibility is impaired,
be equipped with navigation lights that are
illuminated. Observe all rules of navigation
when meeting or passing another vessel.
DO NOT
operate your yacht at high speeds
during night operation or when visibility is
impaired. A good rule to follow is to

that which would prevent you from stopping
within the distance of your visibility.
Always use common sense and good judge-

Refer to the United States Coast Guard pub-

abide by them, other boaters assume the
