Odds are good the light switch position will be unchanged since the impact. I can't imagine someone aboard that boat thinking: "oh, I should turn that switch on" right after the accident, so the switch position should offer an instant clue. If the all-around white light bulb was broken in the impact, forensic experts can determine if it was on or off at the time.
