I bought this simple tri-color light for using in the dinghy based on recommendation on her site. Problem solved.


Please use all safety precautions you think necessary. I do think it might be overkill, IMHO. Keep in mind that if you are traveling at night through the mooring fields, usually the only other craft moving on the water are other dinghies. I agree that a simple flashlight pointed forward and towards the water to highlight mooring balls is really all that is required. If you are going through the mooring field, with boats at anchor its not like there is going to be high speed boats ripping through the field at night.

Slow = pro.
