The flaw in the diagram above of a tug towing and lights at night is the assumption, at least along coastal BC, that the lights actually work or are so dim as to be functionally dead. I spent years sailboating in the dark around Vancouver, Howe Sound and from Point Roberts over to the San Juan Islands. Many of the tows I saw had no to poor lighting on the barge. I took my Q from the three lights on the tug itself.
