Default Strobe light

A lot of commercial fishing boats spend the night at sea drifting. To be
seen better, they use a strobe light. Legal or not, they want to be seen.
I/m thinking an all around white LED anchor light could be wired to a
relaxation oscillator or 555 timer chip to create a low current draw white
strobe. Yes? No?

I believe you may be mistaken for a submarine or someone in distress -- but
either way, you'll be seen.
