The boat also has a White light "built in" to the TRANSOM which is less than 180 degrees.
When I am underway at night...I have the Red/Green ON, the Mast Light ON ... @ something OVER 180 degrees facing forward.....AND the White Transom light ON. The factory switches on the dashboard pretty much dictate what my choices are. NB
I Can't find this EXACT combination of lights in the Boating Handbooks. OH WELL. You do the best you can......NB

Your setup is the requirement for boats >12meters, and certainly permissible on smaller boats.
Under 12meters it's permissible to use an all-around mast light (located behind the driver) instead of the separate stern/forward light.
