What characteristics can be used to identify a lighthouse?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — All of the above
Lighthouses are identified by a combination of visual and electronic characteristics. These include the structure's physical appearance, its painted color or daymark, and the specific light color and phase characteristic (rhythm). Mariners must verify all these features against the Light List to ensure positive identification.
