Default Any tricks to remember Nav lights position...?

Just,
The OP was discussing the NAV lights on his boat, not Nav Markers.


I thought so too, but he also asked about direction, so I figured I
would add a quick tip there too just in case. He being a new boater
might not know what he is or really needs to ask.

The
Port light on a boat is red, the Starboard Light on a boat is green, so
when you see a green light on your port side, the boat is going to cross
your path. If you see a red light on your starboard side, the boat will
cross your path.- -


Someone posted this link the other day:

I am going to study till I know it, going to make my kids do it too.

Anyway, I hope in the long run, the guy gets the "tip" he needs.
