Then what is the 2 whites showing?

I thought a stern view NUC making way, yet the upper white dont fit in
the picture.

So are you saying vessel aground showing a range?Or a stern view with
stern light and 360 white?

Joe



G Assuming my answer correct (and I'm surprised no one jumped on me
for not mentioning a "stern light"), the problem you're having is in
the mental picture .... you're assuming "masthead and range".
However, look at a large vessel at anchor. The fwd anchor light is
higher than the after one and since at no time does a NUC use masthead
and range lights......

A vessel aground doesn't show a sternlight, it shows an all around white
light at the stern (along with one at the bow, plus the two reds).

You need to read the post where I was discussing what lights a NUC uses.
When making way I neglected to mention the stern light. The above post
was correcting that and discussing "Anchor lights".
BTW, I see Neal missed about five answers ..... so much for his fabled 90%.

otn

I only missed TWO!

Did you have an accident and lose a thumb and two fingers on your
"counting" hand?

5, repeat, 5

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.

Nope, 5.

Once again, 17,18,21,29,35 (backpedaled).

otn

Only missed 4 because 29 and 35 are the same question reworded.

The towing light question is unfair and the special flashing light
is a change in the Rules. So, I really only missed two legitimately.

LOL, Got you up to 4. Excuses on 29 and 35 are not accepted, which makes 5.

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.

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