Wait, let me get out my 1746 British Rules.

Does anybody have a copy of the Phoenician Rules?

I'm not sure what the "older rules" say. My 1990 rule book is word the
same as the newer rules. (2 lights, only one below 50 meters, "special
anchorage" exclusion below 20 meters).

The 1948 rules are similar. Vessels over 150 feet need two lights.


May1, 1977 edition:


Wow, I'm impressed. I only have the International version of the 1948
rules, which doesn't include that rule. Also, my 1897 inland rules don't
have that, it is worded like the 1948 rule. Now I'm going to have to
start looking for my 1962 Chapman!

I should get three points - one for each wrong answer of the others since
it was a hard question.

The correct answer is two anchor lights. I just posted that.

I didn't post an answer right away because I didn't see
any correct responses. Your response Neal did not show
up on my newsreader. I just checked on Google Groups,
and saw that you, Capt Neal, were the one and only person
to post the correct answer. I awarded you 1 point on that
thread.

Three counting that trick question where they changed the rules for the
special flashing light.

The barge question over fifty meters in a special anchorage area the
right answer is TWO anchor lights. Bart was wrong when he said one
anchor light was the right answer.

No, but I have a set of Inland Rules for the Nile dating back to Cleopatra

Picked 'em up when you were a teenager, no doubt.

Nah, Tony gave them to me. He said Cleo gave him hell for approaching her
barge while it was descending the river.
