Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — None of the above
Rule 27(b) defines a vessel restricted in her ability to maneuver. A towing vessel in this condition must display three all-round lights in a vertical line (red-white-red) and masthead lights as required by Rule 24. None of the provided options correctly list the full, required combination of these specific lights.
