rear light clear
And, visible for 180 degrees.
135 degrees....

Er...on boats less than 12 meters (39.37 feet), a stern light is clear
showing 180 degrees.

Pages 48/49 Navigation Rules.


try page 41. a sternlight is defined as one that displays over an arc
of 135 degrees. on some vessels, an all around light may be used.
there's nothing about a light displaying 180 degrees.



*Now* you've done it. :)
