Dear Antoine, it depents on you use.
If you try to run at night and/or offshore I would strongly recommend at
least a tricolour red/green/white light (sailboat under sail)
so another vessel has chance to figure out your sailing direction.
A pure white around will normaly sugesst: I see your stern light from aft.
You run away from me. Or you are at anchor.
Special not very clever if the other boat comes from forward..
A good minimum for a small Psubs is a red-green combi and a all around
white about one meter higher on a Mast.
By the way this white around is also nice as docking light in the harbour.
So nobody can overseen you dark, deep in the water sub on the ponton and
use is as fender..
Its with the rules if the Lights are temporaly. so you can use surface
types with a battery or with a cable via the open hatch or a
(watertight) socket.
vbr Carsten

ok thank you
the 3 lights that the military subs use and that are visible on the last
link had me confused.
in my case I am just less than 7m and less than 7kt so all round white
light would be enough
regards

Colregs allow for a vessel under 40' to display a combo red and green
and an all around (360 deg) white to replace the masthead and stern
lights.

Hi Carsten
thanks for bringing this subject up.
where did you find these rules for ligthing subs? international or
european or german ones?
-i tried in colreg rules online but could not find text for subs
travelling on surface
-I found a reference to sub on some of the more comprehensive summary
drawings showing all sorts of vessels (
http://www.sentinelpressllc.com/colregsnavigationlights.html
<http://www.sentinelpressllc.com/colregsnavigationlights.html> ). Subs
to come in with left green side lights, as well as 3 mast lights white
225° /amber 360° /white 225°
-then the colreg rules for vertical separation of lights seem to say
lower mast light 2m above deck mini, then other two lights at least 1m
from each other (2m if boat over 20m long)
all in all this makes a christmas tree 4 m high from top deck...
-then also some online chat talking about exceptions for subs for
height above water.
for my litttle 6m boat I was planning to use off the shelf lights (2nm)
and fit it in the acrylic tube which serves as mast and buoy (which i
found the inspiration for looking at your videos!!), with its own power
and IR remote switch
but it is only 1m long, not 4...
regards

Hmm.
Toplight 245
Anchor Light 215
Sternlight 230
Strobelight abt. 250
Portside light 215
Starboard light. 215
1370 Euro - 1500 USD
But on a 1-3 seater Psub you can run with just
One Anchor light and one combination Position ligh red and green
Together 215 + 239 = 454 Euro - 500 USD

The Lopo lights at rated for 600 m. A full setup for a vessel under
20 m with the special sub Strobe is about $2,300.

Carsten, Are those new navigation lights something that
you guys made? or adapted from some existing lights?
