The key takeaways are the navigation light requirements and positioning for different vessel types and situations according to international regulations.

The different types of navigation lights are all-round lights and sector lights. Their positioning depends on whether the vessel is underway, not underway, restricted in ability to maneuver, dredging, fishing, or towing. Lights are positioned based on rules 23-30.

Vessels between 7-50 meters have specific light requirements depending on their size, including the number and positioning of masthead lights, sidelights, sternlights, and all-round lights. Larger vessels over 50 meters also have distinct requirements.
