Default Pop up stern lights

Was gonna add a stern light to my 38SC, only one I seen that was decent is from fountain of youth products. Any recommendations? Also was gonna try a pop up nav light up front, any recommends on that too?

Matt never seen any of ELECTRIC units last over the years. Mariah boats use to install them on a lot of their builds and within 2 to 5 years none of them would work.

Just asking are you talking about the manual units or the electric units for your stern / anchor lite ?

I was talking about the electric/automatic pop up ones, since I don't like the look of my radar arch I've gotta come up with something before poker run season starts!

I know what you are looking for but if you google electric pop up stern light you see - half the people say theirs is still working and the other half say they are on the third one in 5 years because they failed. Anyways like I said they will fail at some point.

Next Innovative was the manufacturer of the electric pop up stern light but no longer carries it, the reason is because they did not last. like I said, I am dealer for Innovative Lighting and know the story behind these electric stern lights.

Like I said Mariah Boats back in their day used this on about 4000 to 5000 boats per year and down the road the electric stern light would get stuck in whatever position, no longer working. I even have one here at the house from the last time Innovative made them and it is stuck. I saved it to see if I could rebuild / fix them myself. I would see if Cobalt is using them currently to find out who they are using. I can do some more digging also but will need sometime..

I could not stand my tarnished bow light. So I powder coated my bow light to match all the grab rails.
