Merchant ships - how do you see flags at night?

Ahoy!

After a prolonged stint on terra firma (1 year) and having recently read "Iron Coffins" i have decided to take to the seas in my old “Wave Scythe”! From the sounds of it and from reading as many of these posts as i can, GWX is going to be a wonderful and exciting new challenge. Cracking job guys.

I plan on setting off to the murky depths tonight on a first mission and shall try and experience this issue with identifying ships at night and pray that I don’t send some poor unsuspecting Irish rust bucket to the bottom of the soup bowl in error!

(Being Irish myself, that would not be a good thing nor start!) Thanks for all the great tips and hints here. Cheers, I’ll most certainly be back for more!!!
PS: "notanameleft", thanks for asking this question, even if you are sinking Irish ships!!!
