This Perko replacement all-round light is a reduced glare design on a 48 inch pole with a black top. It is a stowaway type with a 2-pin plug-in base, a clear fluted lens and gold plated contacts, and it is rated for 2-mile visibility. It is certified for power driven vessels under 20 meters (65.6 feet) in length. That certification covers power driven vessels only.

Our take

The reduced glare lens on this 48 inch all-round light sits on a 2-pin plug-in base with gold plated contacts. It is certified only for power driven vessels under 20 meters, so confirm your boat fits that first.

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.
