Vessels over a certain size do not fall under the same criteria as smaller boats. I do not remember what that size is but do know they have different rules governing their navigation.

I believe the restriction of colored lights [red and green] is fairly new. In previous years, most of our trips to and from East Bear Island were after dark. On several occasions, we were confused by red and green shore lights. We no longer put the lighted pink flamingo or lighted green frog on our dock.
