If your caught in a storm, FYI, you may be lie - to a riding sail and a para - anchor. As other ships approach you will not be able to move quickly without slipping your drogue. Therefore, you adorn a "white" light upon your mast while your hanking your sails back on. Most of the time, a choice of sail is a trysail, the suggestion is that it is a storm orange. This may help for safety reasons of other vessels seeing you at a distance and have time to adjust their heading. The color white during a storm tends to blend with the white caps.
