Two Steamers Meeting
When both side lights you see ahead,
Port your helm and show your RED.
Two Steamers Passing
GREEN to GREEN, or RED to RED--
Perfect safety--go ahead.
Another instructive rhyme, addressing vessel sidelights, from Nautical Nursery Rhymes, by Billy Ringbolt, which resides in the "Peterson, Peter H. (Capt.) Papers, (SAFR 18665, HDC 571)."
