What color should the light be thats attached to your sailboats horn?
It lights up when you sound the horn.

You are correct Otmb. All around white maneuvering light. Used in
crowded harbors where it may not be clear who's signaling.

If you knew the answer, Joe, then why did you ask the question?

Just a Texan Retard thing?

I hope Mysterry finds a more educated man in college...a woman posing with a

Actually, it's use would be good offshore as well as in crowded harbors.
For instance due to seperation distance, closed up wheelhouse, weather,
etc., you may not readily hear the signal...

If you take the time between seeing the light and hearing the sound you can
tell how far away it is. Count the number of seconds between and that is how
many thousand feet away it is.

Glory!
