The Perko Fig. 955 is a classic navigation sidelight supplied as a pair, with red and green lenses. The top is chrome-plated brass on a black plastic base, and a 12 volt bulb is included. It is made for power or sail boats up to 39 ft (12 m), with 1 nautical mile visibility. The maker lists it as USCG certified and usable in new construction.
Our take
USCG certification covers new construction for the Fig. 955, so it suits a new build as well as a swap. With 1 nautical mile visibility and a rating that stops at 39 ft (12 m), it is sized for smaller power and sail boats, and the 12 volt bulb is included.
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.
