I always understood the 'steaming light' was the one I am talking about.....the one on the front of the mast, not the one on top of the mast.

Interesting my brother's boat is a 2007 Hunter 33 and it does not have a 'steaming light' on the front of his mast. Wonder why Hunter would not have put one there if it is a legal requirement?

I will replace mine later in the Fall when the mast is down with a quality fixture....probably an Aqua Signal for 3X the cost.

I think whoever told you that is mistaken; the steaming light is NOT an all-around light, and is made to combine with the nav lights to show the proper lighting arrangement while moving under power.

The light I am talking about is the one 1/2 up the front of the mast just above the spreaders....not the one on the top of the mast seen 360 degrees......I was told the one on the front of the mast is longer a legal requirement but the one on the top of the mast is a legal requirement when motoring or motor sailing.

Am I correct?
