Default Port Security

No lights?


No running lights that we could see. And when they were running next
to us they had soft, red tone, low intensity instrument lighting. It
was obvious to us that they did not want to be seen. The crew (two
that we could see) were also blacked out completely.

They were on us before we knew it. All six of us were looking west to
the lights of South Beach (beautiful from the water at night) and they
came up on our port side. It was a strange experience. This happened
about ten years ago.
