Ahh... Good point. That had gone through my mind, but evidently didn't stick
very long... :)

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Stus-List New thought re: anchor light?
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 be very easy
to confuse the light (especially new, 600K bright LEDs) with background stars.
I also think most people don't look for lights that high up in the sky -
Especially folks in dinghies and power boats. :)
That led me to ask myself - Why not just mount a new light to the top of the
bimini or some other more visible place? I have a stainless steel mount for an
old exterior satellite radio antenna I no longer use, so I could easily mount
and wire it, and in the process make it more likely that folks motoring around
the anchorage would see my boat.
Everything I see indicates this would be COLREG requirements.
Thoughts?
