Specifications

Certified range
2 nm
Rated vessel length
Up to 50 m (165 ft)
Supply voltage
10-30 V DC

The Lumitec Contour Inset is a starboard green navigation light in a white housing. It carries a 2 NM USCG rating for vessels up to 50 m (165 feet) and is CE certified, but not UL certified. It runs on 10-30 V DC and draws 67 mA at 12 V. The IP rating is 67, and the light stands 1 inch high.

Our take

The USCG rating is 2 NM and covers vessels up to 50 m (165 feet), so a boat of that length or shorter is within what the light is approved for. Draw is 67 mA at 12 V. It is not UL certified.

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.
