You need to review, too.

A is the correct answer.

The question is inland only. In the inland rules a special flashing light is NOT, I repeat, NOT
required when towing along side past the demarcation line. A hip tow requires sidelights and two yellows on its stern. It does not
require a special flashing light.

INLAND

A special flashing light is used on a vessel

A. being pushed ahead
B. towed alongside
C. towed astern
D. both A & B

No cap, its you that needs the review.

We're talking about the vessel being towed, not the tow vessel. Refer
to 24(f)(ii), IIRC.

I fail to see why you two idiots cannot understand that by definition
a special flashing light is ONLY used on a vessel being pushed ahead.

A. is the correct answer.

B. is incorrect because a vessel being towed along side does not require
a special flashing light. That makes D. wrong as well.

Get a clue.

And what about rule 24 (f)(ii):
a vessel being towed alongside shall exhibit a sternlight and
at the forward end, sidelights and a special flashing light

It really isn't that hard to learn this stuff, Neal.

And what do you mean "by definition"?

This is a very good question.

Neal has an older copy of the Rules, like mine.

The Rule has changed recently.

D is correct.
