[Rhodes22-list] Steaming light plug

[Lowe, Rob]

Ok, I'll ask.  What the difference between an "anchor light" and a "mast
head light" and when should each be used?  I'm asking because we've
never overnighted and are planning to do so soon what want to be using
my lights correctly. - rob

My R22 2009 has two switches, one says "anchor light" the second says "
mast
head light".  I am told that the single mast head light fixture I have
includes two bulbs, one while at anchor, the second as a running light.
I
think I may still have a third wire up the mast for some future use but
am
not sure.  I need to bet a voltage tester to figure things out.
