Battery powered anchor light?

I have been looking out for some time for a good waterproof LED lantern for use as a backup anchor light. I have a masthead one, but apart from that it doesn't hurt to have a second light hung lower - more in the line of sight of most small boats.

That would send the wrong message, according to the rules.

Surely no one would complain that you had a lantern hung over your cockpit?

[/ QUOTE ] Two anchor lights , with the forward one higher, are required for vessels over 50m , a single one being merely an option for vessels less than 50m. So far from being something that no one will complain about it is compliant with the colregs.

Why not flog your lights in twos with a bit of a discount on the second. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
