----------ABOUT THE VIDEO----------

This video was originally uploaded to our other channel, Casual Navigation, back in 2018.

This video is an "in depth" look at Rule 25 of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea. Rule 25 continues the section looking at Light and Shapes of different vessels. This rule defines the lights and shapes that a sailing vessel or a vessel under oars should exhibit.

i. sidelights;
