Attwood All-Around Fold-Down Incandescent Anti-Glare Lens Light - 12" Aluminum Pole - 12V - Horizontal Composite Base

The Attwood All-Around Fold-Down Incandescent Anti-Glare Lens Light with 12-inch aluminum pole and 12V horizontal composite base is a compact navigation light purpose-built for boats up to 39 feet. This 360-degree all-around light delivers 2-mile visibility across the full arc, meeting U.S. Coast Guard requirements for recreational vessel navigation lighting. The fold-down design provides practical durability for crowded docks and trailering without catching or snagging, while the incandescent bulb produces the red and green filtering needed for port and starboard visibility when mounted strategically.

The LightArmor fold-down base is the core of this light's field reliability. Single-handed cam-lock operation allows quick deployment and stowing without tools, critical when navigating into crowded anchorages or when preparing for trailering. The 12-inch aluminum pole resists corrosion in salt-air marine environments, while the horizontal composite base distributes mounting loads efficiently across deck surfaces. At just 0.4 pounds, the assembly adds minimal weight to small-craft rigging. The incandescent source is consistent, affordable to replace, and compatible with standard 12-volt DC marine systems found on most center console, cabin cruiser, and fishing vessel installations.

Weekend anglers and serious offshore boaters value navigation lights that work reliably during dawn and dusk runs to productive waters and don't complicate deck cleanup. The fold-down design suits tournament bass boats, saltwater center consoles, and cruising sailboats where clutter and snag points cost time and money. The anti-glare lens reduces scatter on the helm station, preserving night vision for electronics monitoring while meeting legal visibility standards for other vessel operators. This light addresses the practical tension between regulatory compliance and deck efficiency on boats where space and durability matter equally.
