has gloss | eng: Sector lights are a man-made pilotage and position fixing aid that consist of strictly de-limited horizontal angle light beams to guide water-borne traffic through a safe channel at night in reasonable visibility. They are most often used for safe passage through shallow or dangerous waters. This may be when leaving or entering harbour. Nautical charts give all the required information and it is important that an up to date chart be used to validate navigation using sector lights. |
