Geoff Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I'm trying to find a new anchor light. It needs to removable (plugs into the base ) & has a narrow base fitting. I've looked around , there is no shortage of lights where the stem plugs into the base. The problem is , the bases are too wide for the mounting area. Perhaps someone has seen a brand or has one fitted to their boat that was supplied by the boat manufacture & can advise the source information. Here is the current light & mounting space available Tks Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framedtrash Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 why not just modify this one ive seen a post on here of some one doing just that its just a matter of extending the pole and the wiring would look just as good as a original one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgey Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Maybe this is an option, Geoff? Extention Cheers Hodgey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The light , being the highest point carries a lot of weight & would be far better to have a removable stem. Hodgey. Tks for the link. Will keep it in mind if nothing comerical turns up Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captin Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I just had a new LED one installed after an inspection by Maritimes telling me it was too short and must be seen at 360 degrees (even though the original one from factory was even shorter than the one that was in there). Its LED and its height is adjustable, plugs in to a base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherdad Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Don't do it. In our last boat we had the removable type, nothing but problems with curosion in the terminals, tried everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
