there are few different signals and it might be rather confusing not only to "not sailors"
Not under command rule 27
A) at sea Interntional colreg
day signal:two black balls
nght: two red lights
B) Inland
day signal:same
night: two red lights plus the green and red side lights and the stern light but not the top lights
For constrained by their draft rule 28
day: a cylinder
night: three red lights with all running lights on
As for they coming in with the tide has nothing to do with restriction as per COLREGs . The ports setting the limits. Once they are over that they have to display the signal accordingly. The Elbe I do not know
but the Schelde has 10m. So they might well be ok to
go in but nevertheless restricted

Constrained by draught is a black cylinder with minimum size 0.6m diameter and 1.2m length. It's the shape normally flown by large ships in confined waters although.
I do appreciate Hamburg may well view these ships as restricted hence the RIAM shapes. Personally I haven't been up the Elbe in any ship bigger than 190 metres in length so I never saw them in use.

On the other hand they're sailing into Hamburg with the high tide so draught isn't a problem, or is it?
