[Rhodes22-list] sailing: colregs Q

[michael meltzer]

Ok, weight is the issue; Do you have a steaming light? Is yes, your setup is
fine, what I would subject is get the plug in Davie version haul it up a
hailer/toss it over the spreader when you need an anchor light (I am
assuming this is temporary use while you are the boat). Cheap, no weight and
less questions all around.

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:
