Question 811Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND What lights must be shown on a barge being towed astern at night?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Sidelights and a stern light.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules, a barge being towed astern at night must display sidelights (red and green) and a stern light (white). This is specified in Rule 24 of the COLREGS and the corresponding Inland Navigation Rule. The other options are incorrect because they do not fully comply with the lighting requirements for a barge under tow.
