Summary/Description: Two large very bright lights hovering low in the sky. Difficult to judge distance but further away than an island that is about 2km off-shore. Size was also difficult to judge, but 10 times the size of nearby lights on fishing boats. The lights moved slowly up and down, occasionally slowly disappearing and reappearing. Once a third light also appeared. The lights were yellowish and very bright. After 15 minutes they all went out.
