Matt,
I would 2nd the recommendation on Marinebeam. They will have both the LED
replacement bulb you would need or a new fixture. My fixture was in pretty
good shape so I bought the bulb last year. I don't generally spend much time
at anchor so I can't say it got a workout, but it always tests fine.

Thanks. Still thinking a white anchor light, but you reflect my experience, at
the last minute I started thinking just change it out.

Hi Matt,
When I took my mast down I took a good look at the brittle dried-up housing,
crazed plastic lens, and iffy led conversion on the existing unit and threw it
in the trash. I replaced it with the SignalMate tricolor
(https://signalmate.com/navigation-light-models/combination-tri-color-with-anchor-2-wire/)
They claim it's made to mil specs... I believe it. It's completely sealed, the
machining and anodizing on the housing is beautiful, and the lens is nice and
thick.
It's pricey but to me, worth every penny as it is completely "install it and
forget it". Living in Georgia my mast does not come down very often so no
maintenance is a big plus. As a bonus it's by far the brightest mast light on
the lake, I consider it cheap insurance against drunken pontoon pilots.
Good luck with the project.
