*MUCH* better price, I bought the anchor light.

Thanks for the great link. I'd like to try their interior lights, but
the nav lights are only for single color fixtures. Let me know when
they come out with a combo P/S bow light or a como tri-color/anchor
light.

On my boat (under 12 meters,) all I needed was one masthead anchor
light fixture and a combo bow fixture (could of also used a clear
steaming light fixture here.) The masthead has a combo
anchor/all-round/tri-color and the bow a P/S combo. International and
inland rules allow an all-round white light (2 mi range) to substitute
for the steaming and sternlight for use when under power. It also
serves as anchor light (duh.)

When I work out the costs of 5 nav fixtures with 5 LED bulbs VS the
cost of two combo bulbs and fixtures, it's comes to within $100 for
either company (and less wiring with only two fixtures.)
