| The key word is may, you always have to show the required lights, but you may show additional lights if you so desire. If towing a stern, it's a good idea to light up the tow with a from the towing vessel <a href="https://trilaen.com/">Trilaen</a> |

| RAM pertains to any condition, due to the nature of the work, prevents the vessel from maneuvering per the rules. This can be pushing, side tow or stern tow. Answer should be D. All of the above. See Rule 3(g)(vi). |

| So no R W R if you are pushing ahead or towing along side ? You can be restricted in your ability to maneuver if you are pushing ahead or towing along side. This makes no sense to me. I answered, D) all of th above * is it just people like me trying to pass the test that are answering other people’s questions or are there people in charge of this site actually looking and responding to our questions? |

| Rule 27 is unclear if it shall be only a stern tow. Only says towing operation. |
