Marine Patrol and navigation lights

I want to say the MP boat involved was a Defender Class. I could be wrong, it was a couple of weeks ago.

I did see a pic of a Defender Class the MP has in the forum's gallery that didn't appear to have the red/green combo light or separate lights on the starboard/port side of the wheelhouse. I have dial up and couldn't find it for this post.
(Defender Class is the USCG designation for the rigid hulls)

As I said, I may have missed them, but when the rescue began it was dusk and when it ended it was completely dark and even after the Blue was turned off, I didn't see the nav lights, although at that point he/she was moving away from me so I may not have been able to see them.

Just curious to see if anyone else had noticed anything like this?
