Question 63Navigation General

70% to pass

Lighted information markers show _______________.

A white lights
B green lights
C yellow lights
D red lights
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) white lights. Lighted information markers, such as those used to mark channels, fairways, or other navigational features, are required to display white lights. This is in accordance with the United States Aids to Navigation System, which specifies that information markers must use white lights to convey their purpose of providing general information, rather than directing navigation. The other answer choices are incorrect because green lights are used for navigational marks indicating the port (left) side of a channel, yellow lights are not used in the US Aids to Navigation System, and red lights are used for navigational marks indicating the starboard (right) side of a channel.
