9.4.2 Navigation lights

Your boat is equipped with the following navigation lights:

  • Fixed navigation lights in the bow.

  • White anchor light on a removable light mast in the stern.

For the location of the lights, see Locations of electrical equipment.

Risk of property damage.

If the boat is equipped with a telescopic light mast, store it in the retracted position to avoid bending it.

The rules and regulations on the use of lights when boating can differ locally. Check your local regulations before leaving the port. As a rule of thumb, it is better that you have the lights on than off.

Always check that the lights are functioning before you leave the port. Replace defective lights as soon as possible. 

If you install additional lights on the boat, make sure that they do not interfere with the visibility of the standard-regulated anchor and navigation lights. Do not modify the anchor or navigation lights in any way.
