| When the length of the the tow exceeds 200meters 3 all around white light should be exhibited plus the red and green, the sides lights and a yellow light over the stern white light, and if it’s less than 200m is only 2 all round white light plus the sideslights and the stern, white & yellow |

| There is no such object as a white tow light. See rule 21.(d) |

| Tow lights are not masthead lights. Answer should be 0. Correct tow light shown is 1 YELLOW tow light over the stern light. |

| Very misleading. Towing lights... (1 white towing light below 1 yellow towing light) = 2 towing lights? |

| Seems a little misleading. Aren't these two white lights masthead lights? Then aft yellow over white tow lights...? |

| The size of the towing vessel is also relevant here, but it is not mentioned in the question. |
