Broken navigation light fixture at top of Nevermore's mast

Fall 2007 Status

The light fixture at the top of the mast is broken.

It is believed to be an Aqua Signal Series 40 Tricolor/Anchor/Strobe light (12v, w/ Quicfits connector).

Aqua Signal part # 40806

For sale at Defender

All three lamps are in working order (2 incandescent & 1 strobe). It may be possible to replace just the lenses to get the fixture working again properly. The Aqua Signal part number for the lens assembly is 40710-1.

Four wires run to this fixture from the base of the mast. These should be inspected for corrosion and replaced if necessary.
