Thanks Shawn,  No need to go after the previous owner.  You got answers from Ken and Nathan that had two different sources of slightly different hull running lights.  I will be out at the boat and measure to see which fits most closely.  Hopefully it will be the one at Defender so I can pick

Agreed.  Whether it be replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs in the taillights of your car or the navigation lights on your boat, you need to put a red bulb behind a red lens, a green bulb behind a green lens, and a yellow bulb behind yellow turn signal lenses.Lenses filter all colors except

Hi Don, Some new bulb holders came with the boat, I can ask the previous owner if he knows. They don't appear to be marine grade though, so I don't know how they will hold up. If the fixtures don't pass the leak test, I will look at going with the marinebeam LED units. -- Shawn Wright

Hello all, I read through your thoughtful responses, and realized the plastic lens up there is probably crazed/cracked suggesting full replacement.  Then, it occurred to me that I don't like the idea of an anchor light 55+ feet up in the air.  Unless you know you're in an anchorage, it would
