A vessel restricted in her ability to maneuver (RAM) shows three all-around lights in a vertical line: red over white over red. When the RAM vessel is making way, it must also display the required lights for a power-driven vessel underway, which are a masthead light forward, a second masthead light aft, sidelights, and a stern light. Therefore, the total lights for a RAM vessel making way are the three vertical all-around lights, plus the masthead lights, sidelights, and stern light. Of the options provided, only 'B' lists the masthead lights, sidelights, and a stern light as the lights shown when making way.
