Re: Aqua Signal Series 44 LED port/starboard bow nav lights

Ryan Meador #47866 I recently made the change to the series 44. The mounting plate is not exactly the same -- you can't use the neat little slide on/off bracket. Two of the screw holes do line up, though. I drilled a third one for extra security, and I put cap nuts on the inside (the side facing the genoa furler) so nothing gets snagged on them. It was a pretty quick and painless upgrade, once I had the right parts: M4 screws, 16mm long, hex drive (3 per light) washers for M4, 4.3mm ID, 9mm OD (I think 6 per light) M4 cap nuts (3 per light) All in 316 stainless, of course. I sourced them from McMaster.

Didn't want to deal with retrofitting the mount. https://store.marinebeam.com/aqua-signal-bi-color-led-replacement-bulb/ The housing leaked probably due to some submarining when we were sailing upwind in 45 knots, so I replaced the bulb, sealed it up and pray daily that it stays sealed. :) -- Scott 2007 A54 #69 SV Tengah http://www.svtengah.com
