Actually, I'd like a Letter of Marquis to issue citations for improper lights at night. If I could get half of a $100 citation I'd be rolling in dough. Once upon a time in St Augustine during a dinner party aboard we noted 32% of the passing boats had bad lights, and again in Gloucester Mass 52% of the boats were not in compliance with the Rules (including a USCG boat with a side light out). Almost all were failure of a motor boat (including sailboats under power) to show a white light from all aspects. Often a sailboat would be steaming into the harbor after taking down their sails and had forgotten to turn on the steaming light. Also often a motorboat would have the proper light installed and turned on but it would be obscured by part of the boat or its people.
