Hella Marine Bi-Color Navigation Light - Incandescent - 2nm - Black Housing - 12V

The Hella Marine Bi-Color Navigation Light – Incandescent – 2nm – Black Housing – 12V is the standard-bearer for reliable deck visibility on vessels of all sizes. After years running channels and crossing open water, you know that proper navigation lighting isn't optional—it's the foundation of safe boating, especially during dawn, dusk, and night operations. This proven incandescent bi-color design combines red and green signals in a single compact fixture, eliminating the need for separate port and starboard lights on smaller craft and reducing clutter on your hardtop or mast.

Built to Hella Marine's exacting standards, this light uses incandescent technology to deliver bright, consistent illumination visible at 2 nautical miles—the distance required for vessels under 50 feet by USCG regulations. The black housing resists corrosion and UV fading, critical when you're exposed to salt spray, sun, and constant motion. A 12V system keeps installation straightforward on standard recreational boats; the compact 6 x 4 x 8-inch form factor fits tight mounting spaces without sacrificing output or beam geometry that ensures both colors reach their prescribed intensity at the correct angles for safe night recognition.

This fixture suits center-console runabouts, cuddy cabins, and offshore sportfishers where deck real estate and weight matter. Incandescent bulbs are user-replaceable, keeping you on the water without waiting for special parts, and the sealed housing stands up to washdown routines and rough weather. Install on your hardtop, flying bridge, or mast with confidence that you've chosen a light trusted by commercial and recreational captains alike for over a decade. Pair it with a proper switch and circuit protection for a navigation package that meets Coast Guard visibility requirements and keeps you and your crew visible to other traffic.
