intended for docking or mooring use only.

9. na v i g a T i o n a n d an C h o r li g h T s
Navigation lights MUST be on while underway
from sunset to sunrise or in conditions of reduced
visibility. “Underway” means the boat is not docked
or at anchor. Trolling or drifting with engine off is
considered “underway” and navigation lights must
be used.
If you are anchored in open water, i.e. where other
boats can approach yours, you must display your
anchor light: a white light that can be seen from all
possible directions, i.e. 360 degrees.
Read the “Federal Requirements and Safety Tips
for Recreational Boats” provided in your kit.
