I want to replace the masthead tricolour nav light on my Norfolk Smuggler. However the boat has a "High Gaff rig" and the gaff and top prt of the sail are higher than the top of the mast........ So there will be some directions from which the nav light will be obscured by the sail and not be visible. I could instal deck level lights and accept the attendant extra battery drain but it is only a small boat and in my experience, being so low, deck level lights are not anywhere near as visible as masthead lights. The boat has a very nice "boom gallows", the top of which must be over 2mtrs above the water so one alternative might be to mount an extra white sternlight on the boom gallows......... or would that just confuse people?
As I said, I am REPLACING an existing fitting so should I just replace it and be done with it or is there something better I could do?
