More port and starboard related trivia. A "Starboard Running Light" is made with green Creme de Menthe and soda; so the lights on the Starboard(right facing forward) are (you guessed it) green. For your night observations at sea it's fun to see if you can tell the aspect of the ship at which you're looking. Also, port and starboard running lights are only visible for two miles or so while mast head (white) lights are visible for 5 or more miles. cheer
