Does anybody know of a manufacturer or distributor for a HIGH QUALITY bow light. Something better than the Perko crap from most distributors like West Marine or Overtons. Need soemthing fairly small since it sits just forward of the cleat. Would love a retractable but would have a hard time routing a drain hose to the bilge.

Any thoughts or recommendations?

They best looking lights are the "cats eye" models. Sorry, I don't know who the mfr is or where to get them.

Just another post to get this thing back to the top of the list.

JohnJan, you might check www.boatfix.com - George Van Parys is the top dog. Literally thousands of parts and a wealth of boat knowledge.

If you can't find something appropriate in the catalog, give him a holler or post at www.boatered.com; George is a moderator over there.

Good luck!
