Correct Answer: Option A — under oars

Rule 25(d)(ii) allows a vessel under oars to exhibit a single white light from an electric torch or lantern in sufficient time to prevent collision. Seeing only this single white light indicates a small vessel, such as one under oars, operating under this provision.
