Attwood Fold-Down Incandescent Anchor/Masthead Light - 20" Horizontal Composite Base - 12V

The Attwood Fold-Down Incandescent Anchor/Masthead Light is the workhorse dual-purpose navigation light every serious boater needs mounted on their vessel. Whether you're running night fishing trips, anchoring in unfamiliar waters, or meeting USCG navigation requirements, this 12V light delivers reliable visibility that keeps you compliant and safe after dark. The fold-down design means it stays protected until you need it, making it ideal for boats that cruise between shallow anchorages and open water.

Built by Attwood Marine with a 20-inch horizontal composite base, this anchor/masthead light combines proven incandescent technology with robust construction that withstands saltwater exposure and constant movement. The horizontal composite base provides a stable mounting platform while keeping the light profile low when folded, reducing wind load and vibration underway. The 12V system integrates seamlessly with standard marine electrical systems, and the fold-down mechanism allows you to stow the light when docked or running in daylight, extending bulb life and reducing electrical draw.

This light suits center console fishing boats, trawlers, cruisers, and any vessel operating after sunset or in low-visibility conditions. The compact footprint—just 5 inches wide and 25 inches tall when deployed—fits cabin tops and mast installations without excessive windage. Installation requires basic marine wiring knowledge and a clean 12V power source; the fold-down action makes maintenance and bulb replacement straightforward. Night anglers and cruising boaters appreciate the dual-function design that satisfies both anchor light and masthead light requirements in a single, durable unit.
