masthead light replacement

Post by Tyche »

We just purchased a Freedom 36 which is missing its masthead light. Has anyone installed a tricolor Lopolight? The mast has been pulled, so we want to get something on before the mast gets stepped in the Spring. Thanks!

I didn't use the tricolor but I've had lopolights at the bow for about 8 years no problems. Had a minor lightning strike which killed all the LED bulbs in the cabin and on the stern. The lopos were the only LEDs that survived on the boat.

I installed a Lopolight 2nm tri on my F28CK Main mast summer 2013 with the adapter for the windex. Its working and looks great. In September I had a custom SS bracket fabricated and mounted a bicolor at the bow.
