Question 204Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND An overtaking situation at night would be one in which one vessel sees which light
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Stern light.
In an overtaking situation at night, the overtaking vessel would see the stern light of the vessel being overtaken. The stern light is a white light that is visible from behind the vessel, indicating its heading and alerting the overtaking vessel that it is approaching from the rear.
The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the lights that would be visible in an overtaking situation. Sidelights, masthead lights, and a combination of these lights would be visible from the side or front of the vessel, not from the rear.
