Part of the fun with websites is that there''s often no way to know how current they are. The rules may have changed five years ago, but if the site you''re consulting was built in 1998 and not touched since, all their official-sounding verbiage won''t make them up-to-date. I tried to find the pertinent running light rules on the uscg.mil site, (where they make a point of saying when things were last changed) but lost patience wading through all the navigation requirements. THAT
website will be current.
