Attwood 7100C7 Telescoping Pole Light with ZAMAK Base, 36-Inch Pole, 2-Mile 360-Degree Illumination for Boats up to 65.6 Feet

The Attwood 7100C7 is a telescoping pole light built for older-style boats that need a traditional, deck-mounted navigation light. It uses a die-cast ZAMAK base with a locking knob that lets the pole be lowered to the gunwale when the light is not in use, keeping the pole out of the way during storage or low-clearance situations. Once raised, the light delivers 2-mile, 360-degree illumination and is rated for boats up to 65.6 feet (20 m), making it suitable for a wide range of recreational and small commercial vessels.

The fixture includes a 9-watt wedge-base lamp, so there is no separate bulb to source before installation. The base mounts through three countersunk holes sized for number 10 fasteners, giving a low-profile, flush installation on the deck. Because the pole telescopes and locks down to the gunwale rather than mounting permanently upright, boat owners should confirm there is adequate clearance below deck for the pole when it is lowered before finalizing the mounting location. The clear polycarbonate lens is built to withstand marine exposure, and the fixture is finished in silver to blend with common deck hardware. This is a direct fit-and-forget navigation light for boats that already use a wedge-base pole light system, sold under the Attwood 7100C7 part number.
