fore and aft vertical plane as the masthead light or lights and, where 

practicable, at a minimum height of one-half meter vertically above the 

forward masthead light, provided that it shall be carried not less than 

one-half meter vertically above or below the after masthead light. On a

if fitted, shall be carried where it can best be seen, not less than 

one-half meter vertically apart from the masthead light.
