BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND A towing light, according to the Rules, is which color?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — yellow light
Rule 21(d) defines a towing light as a yellow light having the same characteristics as the stern light defined in Rule 21(c). This specific color coding allows other mariners to distinguish a towing vessel from a standard power-driven vessel or other specialized craft at night.
