[Rhodes22-list] Best LED Masthead Light ?

[Peter Nyberg]

Steve,

I can tell you what model I installed at the top of my mast last year about this time.  I didn’t do a lot of research, so I can’t say it’s the best, but I was able to install it without any problems, so it was good enough for me.

It’s the Sea-Dog LED All-Around Navigation Light.  Sea-Dog model # is 400042-1.  I ordered it from Defender.  Their item # is 701315.  Their current price is $49.99.

I have the IMF mast, which in all likelihood you do too.

Hope that helps,

One possibility on "marinebeam.com" is the "ALL-AROUND LED ANCHOR LIGHT FOR SAILBOAT MAST - SERIES 40 TYPE <20M", but this seems rather large.  Will this work, or can someone recommend a better unit?  Thanks.
