If I saw a flashing yellow light I would wonder what kind of submarine it was! lol.
If it's all you have then according to Dave R's research it's OK. This is a good example of why you carry at least one flashlight on a boat.
Another precaution they could have taken was to broadcast a "Security" advisory on ch16. Perhaps they thought it was not neccessary at this time of year since night traffic is very light. I'm sure many folks would be tempted to just "wing it" under these conditions.
