Manuals

This is Attwood's red port side light in stainless steel, built for deck mounting. It shows a 112.5 degree arc and gives 1-mile visibility on boats up to 39.4 ft in length. An 8-watt lamp is included. The housing is 2-1/2 inches long, 2-1/4 wide and 1-1/2 high, and it fixes down with three #6 fasteners, which you need to supply yourself.

Our take

The 1-mile rating and the 39.4 ft length limit set the boundary clearly: this is a small-boat port light, and anything longer needs a light with more reach. At 2-1/2 by 2-1/4 inches it fits tight deck spots, but buy the three #6 fasteners separately.

From our buying guide

The lights a boat must show depend on its length and how it's being driven. A sailboat under power is a power-driven vessel and shows power-driven lights.

Check before you buy:

  • The label gives its visibility in nautical miles, and that range meets the minimum for your boat's length.
  • The maker rates it for boats of your length.
  • A replacement LED is certified with the fixture it's going into, since the Coast Guard warns that replacement lighting may not meet the rules.
