Funny the discussion of lights come up because I'm currently installing a pr if 5" LED lights on my boat that will be hooked up to a switch. Personally I think its crazy not to have any type of lights while navigating any waters in the dark... You don't drive a car without lights, why a boat ?
I fished Rome the other night with one incandescent lamp and I was amazed how easy it would have been to beach or run into a rock bluff cause it was so dark, never mind all the floating debris.
Not only that but if you're sitting there anchored cat fishing and hear a boat coming.. Navigational lights aren't going to cut it... But they will see me with a set of flood lights regardless how fast they are running.
