Me too.  I use a spin halyard and haul it higher with a light downhaul I keep 
rigged and let it light the coachroof and deck.

Just to reinforce the power boaters never look up thing, when anchored in
an active area, I always display an all around white light near deck level
in addition to the white all around on the masthead.  I use one of these
draped over the boom:

You can use it *under sail only* and *only by itself*.
I never use mine in the Bay. I used to use it, but after about the 5th time I 
almost got run over and yelled at for having no lights, I discovered 
powerboaters  do NOT look up. I do like it offshore, when the waves are 
spreader height the deck level lights don’t really show up at all. If you want 
to combine deck and masthead lights, you need 360 degree red over 360 degree 
green.

Anyone know the regs on using Masthead Tri-Color lights.   Just want to do 
what's right on my boat this summer on Chesapeake Bay.  I believe you can use 
either but never both deck lights and the masthead tri-color.  Also thought I 
read that the masthead tri-color was intended for offshore and not allowed 
inshore so I may never use it.
