If your switch has an off, anchor, and nav positions this can be duplicated
with a 2 pole on-off-on toggle switch. Both on's from one pole connect to
the white light. Only one on from the other pole connect to the red/green
light. Both center connections go to hot. The in the center everything is
off. In one direction only the white light is on, in the other direction
both the white and the red/green light are on.

Greetings,

I'm easily confused when it comes to marine switches, so.............

My 13' Whaler has a cheap two position pull switch for the
navigation/anchor light(s) that is highly unreliable. I'd like to
replace it with a more waterproof, toggle style switch with weather
boot.

I've looked on several marine web sites, but I can't find a switch
that's indicated as being designed for this purpose. There are 100's
of various switches, 2 pole, 4 pole, 3 connector, 6 connector, etc.

What kind of switch do I need for this application?
