[Peter Thorn]

Thanks.  Yeah, I know the 225 light will work.  Just trying to use what Stan
has provided and avoid adding even one more ounce of weight aloft.

1) under sail - Stern light ( 135 degree rear facing light) + side lights
2) under power - Stern Light + Side lights + forward facing "steaming' Light
which fills in the 225 degrees not covered by the stern light.  
                 or - 360 degree "anchor light" + side lights only (no stern
light)  Bob W> From: pthorn at nc.rr.com> To: rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org> Date:
