It seems quite likely given the prevailing weather conditions.

Maybe pikeys looking for towpath tarmacking opportunities. Did it have "Motorway Maintenance" on the back?

Weβve just seen this boat, pulling away from its mooring in Thorne. Orange light in wheelhouse was flashing. The boat appeared to be being controlled by a tablet remote control the guy was holding (no-one was on wheel or throttle). Therefore I would guess that the flashing orange light means control has been passed to the remote system.

According to the cevni regs a flashing orange/amber light is to be shown by a vessel under way engaged in works to the waterway. My Dutch barge had an orange light above the wheelhouse which flashed. When the new reps came in an orange light had to show in sequence with the horn, so if youβre deaf you know somethings happening so stopped it flashing and wired it to the horn switch. The blue board which we had to have because of the barges length had a white flashing light in the middle of the board.

On the tidal Thames flashing orange light means vessel operating at high speed.

It is also used by a hovercraft at sea.
