HOME PORT LIGHTS
The Meaning Behind the Home Port Lights
For those who have served, the significance of the Home Port Lights is instantly clear. Many of us remember standing lookout watches aboard ship while underway — three lookouts at all times: one on the port side, one on the starboard side, and one aft. Their duty was to scan the horizon for ships, planes, or anything on the water.
At night, navigation depended on a simple truth:
Red light marked the Port (left) side.
Green light marked the Starboard (right) side.
These lights told us everything about a vessel’s direction and position in the dark.
And of course, there’s that unforgettable saying every sailor knows — “Red, Right, Returning” — guiding us safely back to port.
By displaying Home Port Lights on your home, you’re not just illuminating your driveway — you’re showing your pride, honor, and service to all who pass by.
Place your order today and feel that same pride you had when putting on your Dress Blues.

Who Are the Home Port Lights For?
Home Port Lights are designed for anyone who takes pride in coming home — whether you’ve served, love the water, enjoy boating, or simply appreciate something meaningful and unique.
These lights are more than decoration — they tell a story. The red and green running lights represent the same navigation lights used on ships and aircraft at night. Red marks the port side, green marks the starboard side. When returning home, sailors remember the saying “Red Right Returning” — a signal that you’re safely heading back to port.
Now, that same feeling can greet you every time you pull into your driveway. With the red light on the right side of your garage, you’ll have a subtle reminder that you’re home — your Home Port. It’s a small detail that brings a smile, a sense of comfort, and maybe even a touch of nostalgia.
