Overproof has no factory mounted "sidelights".... I have a set of oil
lamps on wood panels that I can use [ deployable but not afixed]... I have a
set of "side lights" that amount to a port & starboard light under the
bowsprit with a stern light on the back rail and a tricolour and anchor
light at the masthead with a steaming light just above my mast mounted
foredeck lights.

| Hmmmm missed that. However, since the subject at hand was a particular
sailboat

which is

this light,

"additionally"
| under power, or "in addition to" that, under power alone.
