Heck... with today's low voltage use yet very high lumen lights it seems we could have a mast with flood lights illuminating the entire boat, while it's running or at anchor.
That way the boat's silhouette as well as its general configuration could be viewed clearly by all others on the water. This ["illuminati" type of of enlightenment - lol] would pretty much enable the others to judge a boat's maneuvers/trajectories not too unlike while in daylight!
Just a thought... Seeing as the colreg rules for boat/ship lighting are basically stemming from the dark ages and needs to enter into the 21st Century!
