    The ensign is still flying after sunset!
    I'm not sure that's a red running light though- looks like something on deck.

    Lol. Guilty as charged about the ensign after dark :)

    the red light looks like a nav light which would be on the wrong side but it a actually a red back lit ocean Alexander logo!

    Uh Oh. That could be confusing at the wrong time.
    Factory option??
    Maybe at least go to a green LED on that side.

    On shore, if the stars and bars are illuminated after dark, that is supposed to be O K.
    Is is OK or proper to light up the Ensign after dark and leave it up?

    Hmm, perhaps ''Roxanne'' is onboard, relaxing on the bridge?
