This Attwood all-round light puts an LED engine on a 20" aluminum pole, with an articulating head and a fold-down base. It is rated for boats up to 39.4 ft (12 m) and shows 2 nautical miles through a full 360° circle. It operates from 10.5V DC to 14.4V DC, and the maker gives the LEDs a life of over 50,000 hours. The pole is anodized aluminum.
Our take
The fold-down base and the 20" pole make this a light that can be laid over when not wanted, and the 360° angle of visibility means it can be seen from any side at 2 nautical miles. The maker rates it for boats to 39.4 ft (12 m).
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.
