NO.

The Tricolor is used in place of the deck level lights. In general, the Tricolor is best used off shore where you want to be seen at a greater distance. The deck level lights are better suited for coastal and in-harbor situations where visibility at shorter ranges and people will be not expecting mast-head level lights is generally the case.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
