Boat Masthead Lights
Whether you use your craft for water sports, fishing, or leisure cruising, it should be equipped with proper navigation lights to make sure it is safe and legal. Even if taking a boat out on the water after the dark is not your cup of tea, sometimes your afternoon water trip may turn into a night adventure. Besides, if you are a regular boater you will inevitably get caught in a rain or fog at some point. Obviously, inclement weather reduces visibility putting you at risk of having an accident with another vessel. That is why every craft is required to have navigation lights. The size of a boat determines what type of them should be used. To wit, masthead lights are required by all motorized boats that are longer than 39.4 feet.
They are white and installed at the front of a vessel. The arc of illumination is 225 degrees. They are combined with stern lights which are visible across 135 degrees to provide 360 degrees of visibility. When it comes to boats that are greater than 39.4 feet but less than 65.6 feet, they should be visible from at least three nautical miles away. For vessels which are less than 39.4 feet, the visibility range is two nautical miles. Keep in mind that they can be also equipped with an all-round light instead of a set of stern and masthead lights. Whatever size of your vessel, we have the right product for it in our selection. Our offerings are made by reliable brands including Sea Dog , Attwood , and many others.

Boat Navigation Lights: Safety with the flick of a switch
When visibility on the water is low, ensure that you have the right marine navigation lights installed from Wholesale Marine. From yachts, to cruisers, small boats, PWC's or even kayaks we offer a variety of portable navigation lights.
Boat stern lights offer a bright white light for visibility on the water. Stern lights come in a variety of mounting options, the two most common are a mounted fixed light or a drop in light on a pole. Boat side lights come in a starboard side (green) and port side (red) light. You can mount a separate light on either side, or use a bi-color light that contains both. If your vessel meets the requirements, you can always use a tri-color light that combines both stern and side lights.
The size of your vessel determines the United States Coast Guard navigation light requirements you must meet. The requirements are for either a main masthead or sternlight head with a pair of side lights. The lights are required to meet a certain nautical distance shine from dead ahead.
Boats that are less than 39.4’ (12 meters) require sidelights with visibility up to 1 nautical miles and a white stern light up to 2 nautical miles.
Boats that are less than 65.7’ (20 meters) require sidelights with visibility up to 2 nautical miles and a masthead light up to 3 nautical miles.
Boats over 65.7' and less than 164' (20 meters - 50 meters) require sidelights with visibility up to 2 nautical miles and a masthead light up to 5 nautical miles.
Whether you’re searching for bow lights or side lights, Wholesale Marine stocks trusted marine brands including Attwood , Perko Marine , and Innovative Lighting . Find reliable boat navigation lights for every type of water vessel.
Marine Navigation Lights That Meet Requirements
Whether you’re piloting a small fishing boat or large power boat, trust that Wholesale Marine has the right boat navigation lights for you. As you are equipping your boat, it is important to be mindful of navigation light requirements for your style of boat. Power driven vessels are required to have a stern light , and either a pair of side lights or a bow light.
Perko Marine side lights such as the Perko Vertical Mount Side Light are equipped with red and green marine navigation lights. Gold-plated contacts provide excellent conductivity while holding up against normal wear.
Depending on your application, you may opt-out of boat side lights in favor of a bi-color deck light. Bi-color deck lights, like the Attwood Bi-Color Boat Navigation Light , function the same as a side light, but feature red and green lights contained in a single unit. This bi-color dual side light offers a universal fit, sitting on a 14” straight 2-pin locking collar pole.
Increase your visibility on the water with the Attwood LED All-Round Boat Stern Light . This boat stern light offers bright white light and is designed for 360° visibility on boats up to 39.4' in length. This marine navigation light is one of many that we stock that is US Coast Guard Approved for 2 nautical miles.
When your boat is anchored, you are required to use a 360° anchor light that is visible up to 2 nautical miles. A perfect choice is the Attwood LED Anchor light . Constructed from enhanced 316 stainless steel and corrosion resistant alloys, this navigation light is designed to hold up. The powerful LED’s are rated for over 50,000 hours of use and produce a light bright enough to be seen up to 3 nautical miles away.
For ease of operation, we recommend Innovative Lighting’s Portable LED Stern Navigation Light . It features a suction cup mount that attaches virtually anywhere, and its rugged construction is able to withstand even tough marine environments. Many of our portable navigation lights for boats use LED bulbs, which consume less power and have a longer service life than regular incandescent or halogen bulbs.

Practical Sailor Tracks Down the Best LED Tri-color LightTesters take a look at six bulbs and lanterns from the marine led navigation light market..  When it comes to navigation lights aboard sailboats, brighter is definitely better. And our latest tests of LED nav lights proved that more light can be made with less energy. In fact, we found that replacing a conventional incandescent bulb with a light-emitting diode (LED) of similar luminosity can result in up to a 90-percent savings in energy consumed over a given period of time. Practical Sailor’ s previous evaluations of navigation lights (September 2005 and Jan. 15, 2002) were tests of tri-color  Photos by Ralph Naranjo masthead lights, sidelights, sternlights, and all-around white lights. For this review, we narrowed the test field and focused solely on LED tri-color navigation lights (sidelights and a stern light combined in a single fixture) because of the under-sail connotation. They are most often used when the engine is off and the alternator(s) is providing no energy boost to the battery bank. This is when miserly current consumption is most appreciated. LED lights come in all sizes and shapes, and it has been their monumental improvement in efficiency that has made the technology so appealing to energy-constrained sailors. In the past, the most popular means of meeting the U.S. Coast Guard’s navigation light requirements for boats under 65 feet (see “Nav Light Requirements,” below) was to use an Aqua Signal Series 40 tri-color lamp housing with its long-filament incandescent bulb. Its 25-watt energy appetite not only puts a significant load on the house battery bank, but it requires a heavier-gauge wire be run up the spar in order to avoid an energy-robbing voltage drop. Swapping out the incandescent bulb for an LED drops power consumption significantly and yields just as bright of a light. During a 10-hour night sail, this results in reducing current consumption from about 20 amp-hours down to a scan’t 2 amp-hours. This savings adds up, and the extra cost of the LED bulb or light will pay for itself in longevity and energy savings. LED Evolution Since the late 1960s, LEDs have followed a trend that amounts to almost a doubling of light output every 36 months. (If Wall Street had done the same, a $100 investment made in 1969 would today be worth over $500,000.) Skipping all the esoteric physics and getting down to basics leaves us with one important concept to grasp: By passing a current through certain semiconductors (materials with only a few electron holes), the electron flow instigates photon release—or more simply put, light energy is emitted. Modern LEDs comprise an anode (+) and cathode (-) that meet in a tiny cup-like reflector that contains an “n” and a “p” layer of semiconductor material. In order to achieve white or colored light, phosphor coatings are used. Another significant breakthrough was the prism-like lens and epoxy-sealed cavity that bundles up many of these semiconductors. The resulting “bulb” reflects and refracts the light energy produced, delivering a color-controlled beam. The plasma-like brilliance of a single-source light creates lens and reflector challenges that each light manufacturer has to deal  with. Some makers shape a single beam with lens elements while others use an array of multiple smaller LEDs. What We Tested Each of the six LED tri-color masthead lights we tested for this report took a different approach to implementing the LED technology. The test field included three LED lanterns and three LED bulbs. From Orca Green Marine (OGM), maker of the top choice among tri-colors in the 2005 Practical Sailor test, we reviewed the latest USCG 2-nautical-mile approved tri-color. The other tested lanterns were self-contained tri-color/anchor light combos from Signal Mate and Lopolight. Among the bulbs we tested was the Lunasea, a sealed, waterproof LED lamp comprising four green, six red, and six white LEDs. From the LED Shop in Queensland, Australia, we tested the Bay15D white LED bulb with 15 diodes. The supplier recommends its use as a low-consumption (2 watts vs. 25 watts) replacement bulb for the Aqua Signal 40 incandescent. The second sealed bulb we tested was from Dr. LED, and it is third-party certified to U.S. Coast Guard standards. LED LANTERNS Boat owners who don’t already have a masthead tri-color light, or who plan to replace an old one—hardware and all—would do well to consider an LED lantern. Orca Green Marine OGM Inc.’s USCG-approved (third-party tested) tri-color/anchor light (LXTA-12v) squeezes an amazing amount of light from a minimal amount of current (0.3 amps @ 12 volts-DC). The well-sealed, nicely machined housing and large lenses keep the LEDs in direct line of sight, regardless of heel or the viewer’s proximity. Hard, anodized endcaps and Lexan outer lens elements form a tough, water-tight seal. Its internal  electronic components are potted in a dielectric sealant, and the lantern comes with a well-sealed pigtail connector. The manufacturer claims a 50,000-hour full brightness LED life and offers a two-year warranty on the $340 lantern. Testers’ main concern that arose during testing was that the OGM lantern produced the most RFI of all the gear we tested. Moving the handheld VHF radio to within 14 inches of the light obliterated radio reception. Bottom line: The OGM lantern is the least expensive in its category, and it proved to be a well-made light. However, its RFI test results held it back. This expensive, well-designed, and carefully manufactured LED tri-color/anchor light offers a multiple diode approach to illuminating each sector of coverage. The lamp’s geometry focuses individual LEDs in narrower beams and uses 36 to cover each colored zone and 44 in the white zone. In addition to adding redundancy with circuitry that allows individual diodes to fail without taking out the entire cluster, the design eliminated the hotspot inherent in tri-color lights that use single-point light sources for each sector. This light offers a green that’s really green (see “Shades of Green,” page 14), a dead-ahead aspect with minimal overlap, and a crisp transition to the red zone. The Lopolight also sports a rugged, well-sealed housing that’s fully submersible. Its current consumption is a tiny bit more than the most energy efficient in this group, but the value of having the light continue to work even if one or more diodes give up the ghost is a big plus. At $689, the Lopolight was the most expensive product of all those we tested, but it also had the least RFI. It comes with a five-year warranty. Bottom line: If quality construction and superior performance are your priorities—and cost isn’t a concern—the Lopolight will fit the bill. It gets the nod as Practical Sailor’s Best Choice. Signal Mate Signal Mate products are designed and manufactured by Maryland-based Kimberlite Assemblers Inc. The company sent us a pre-production version of its 2-nautical-mile tri-color lantern for testing. The searing bright lantern scored high marks for energy efficiency. Its 0.3 amp draw at 12 volts DC compared to some of the more expensive lanterns. The Signal Mate incorporates a finned alloy base that functions  as a heat sink and houses the driver and diodes within a polycarbonate cylindrical tube. Its endcaps and electronics are sealed and bedded in Dow Tough Gel. Its cylindrical shape makes it well suited for masthead mounting. The light output did not appear hampered at all by the unit’s comparably small lenses, even at varying angles of heel. The design, with a single light source per sector, created a white hotspot, but from 50 to 100 yards away, it was undetectable. Hotspots, a bright white spot that occurs when a single-point white light source illuminates a colored faceted lens, are common to this design. Just before going to press with this review, Signal Mate sent us its new production version of this lamp. Like the pre-production unit, the LED circuitry is enclosed in a polycarbonate cylinder, but it now incorporates O-ring seals and 3M 5200 adhesive to better cope with thermal expansion and contraction. Heat dissipation and RFI suppression have been improved, and the overall fit and finish have been raised a notch. The light is certified to USCG and American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC)-16 standards. Bottom line: The $359 Signal Mate tri-color is a cost-effective option with a good five-year warranty, and the new version boasts some necessary improvements. The new breed of LED bulbs can add efficiency to those old Aqua Signal, Hella, and Perko incandescent nav lights that have been serving boats for decades. These plug-and-play conversions from incandescent to much more efficient LED technology are capturing market share, and the degree of this success has inspired Aqua Signal to come out with its own single-diode LED light and a new line of LED products. For those with older lamps such as the venerable Aqua Signal 40 tri-color, the following three bulb options represent good examples of what’s available in the realm of LED conversions. The Dr. LED Polar Star 40 replacement bulb for the Aqua Signal 40 lantern comes with an interesting note. According to the Seattle firm, “a white LED should not be used behind colored lenses.” And to that end, its LED replacement bulb has three distinct color-enhanced sectors indigenous to the bulb itself. These are not stand-alone red, green, and white sectors, but instead are color-enhancing segments that ensure that red is red and green is a bright and deep shade of green. This reduced the bulb’s hotspot. The bulb is designed in the U.S., made in China, and meets the 2-nautical-mile visibility, chromaticity, and other demands of the ABYC/USCG standards. It was the lowest current-consuming light in our test (0.1 amps), and though not the  brightest, it was visible and color recognizable at the 2-mile range. Bottom line: Middle of the pack price-wise, this $50 current miser gets a Practical Sailor Budget Buy among LED bulbs for conversions. Lunasea Lights This well-sealed, wedge shaped, waterproof bulb uses separate LEDs for each color zone. The red sector held six LEDs, and the green four. Light-meter readings indicated that the red sector was a bit brighter than the green sector during tests. At distances beyond 100 yards, the discrepancy was not noticeable visually. Both segments could be seen at the 2-nautical-mile range. This bulb seemed to only need a clear housing because of the excellent chromaticity match, but without being placed in a tri-lens housing, it had a rather large overlap of red and green. We noted that the red and green (bow-on aspect) covered an arc of more than 20 degrees. But by placing the tri-color lens over the bulb, the overlap was brought into an acceptable 10-degree range, creating a bright, very distinguishable tri-color light. The Lunasea bulb was the only one in its group with the ability to keep shining even if one of the multiple diodes failed. Bottom line: One of the brightest LEDs tested, the Lunasea light gets the Practical Sailor Recommended pick among bulbs for its top performance and lifetime warranty, the only test product to offer one. Distributed by the Australia-based LED Shop, the white BAY-15D bulb we tested was a cluster of 15 diodes in pentagonal array of three vertical diodes per segment. This bright-white light makes a superb anchor light, and the LED Shop also recommends it as a replacement bulb for the Aqua Signal Series 40 tri-color light. In our testing, it provided a bright red and green sector, but its colors were not as saturated as the color-specific bulbs by Dr. LED and Lunasea. Testers’ biggest concern was the fact the bulb isn’t properly sealed. This does afford better heat dissipation, a key factor in LED longevity, but we prefer sealed bulbs. However, the BAY-15D’s $27 price tag, its brightness and  minimal RFI make it a bargain as an anchor light bulb. Bottom line: Although inexpensive and a good performer, the BAY-15D was held back by its lack of a good seal.

It would be helpful if you added the part numbers of the specific product that you’re testing. For example, when I went to the Lopolight website, I couldn’t find the product you tested. I’m a little disappointed that you didn’t test any trilights with the strobe or flash function. Perhaps I’ll keep my 20-year old Hella.

LED All-Around Anchor Light
Product DescriptionNavLight ™ Series 1 USCG-Certified LED Anchor Light. This elegant, super bright, and efficient 3NM all-around anchor lamp meets the requirements for vessels up to 50 Meters in length. This lamp is simple to install on the mast-top with the included hardware. It is a super-solid lamp with a tripod footprint, so it can take abuse at the mast-top or in the yard. Like all Marinebeam products, our LED all-around anchor lights have our integrated internal Constant-Current chipset, so they can operate at voltages from 9-33VDC. This means they are great for both 12VDC and 24VDC applications. This also provides protection from over-voltage conditions, transient surges, and provides for consistent output and safety even at very low battery levels. Our navigation lamps do not emit RF harmful interference, and are EMC certified to EN55022, EN61547, and EN60945 so they will not interfere with radios, sensitive electronics, or GPS signals. Currently only available in black UV-resistant housing. Includes three (3) stainless steel mounting screws, and 8' of duplex 18AWG tinned wiring to allow power connection to be made within the mast or below decks, if desirable. Specifications:

Replaced first light under warranty. The replacement unit also failed after two years. Lasted about 2 yearsPosted by Captain Jeff Irwin on 3rd Feb 2020 I am disappointed that the first one only lasted 2years and is not serviceable ( sealed unit) hopefully the second one lasts longer. Marinebeam: Jeff - we typically see a much longer lifespan and carry a two year warranty on all products. If you still have the fixture we would like to take a look at it to see how the unit failed. Extremly bright lightPosted by Robert Gibson on 29th Apr 2016 Light is very bright but the top cap with company logo came off during first trip. The light appears to be sealed well I think the cap was purely cosmetic. For the price I wish it would have been attached better. Looks good so far..Posted by Unknown on 29th Jun 2015 Just installed this. Very bright LED. Looks sturdy enough to stay maintenanceless at the top of the mast. Only time will tell if LED does last.
