green indicates a vessel's starboard (right) side. Sternlight: This white light
is seen only from behind or nearly behind the vessel. Masthead Light: This
white light shines forward and to both sides and is required on all
power-driven vessels.

The light facing forward on the mast just below the
spreaders is the masthead light, for motoring at night.
