At anchor - you need of course to have your anchor light on also, but
this helps make your boat much more visable to other boats that are
very nearby and would miss the anchor light. I know I struggle, with
the bimini up, to see other peoples anchor lights from the helm. In
regards to another post, I would not be concerned that multiple white
lights are misinterpreted, but if I was, could always put an additional
light at the bow (the lawn lights are sold in sets of 6 at the home
depot where I live)

At mooring - People have all sorts of lights on at a mooring, should be
no problem to have this on as well. I might also take an extra one
inside, and leave it near a window plus a radio turn on, if I am not
around. Makes the boat appear inhabited.

I saw this somewhere .. go get a yard solar light, Lowes/Home Depot ... the
kind you put along the walk way.

I guess I can leave one out ,, it will power up ,,, use it at the mooring ..

Any thought on yard solar lights for sailboats?
