Hello!
I purchased some new LED Nav lights to replace the ones that have 35 year old lenses and likely are not really visible at the rated distance.
I was about to put the new ones in the same location as the current lights but I noticed that when I drop my foresail it almost always covers up one of the lights. The lights are located on the sides of the coach roof near the forward fixed port lights.
I am trying to decide where I can put them to provide height above the water, good distance between the two (I think this makes red/green at the same time easier to see from a distance) and that will not be covered up by the sail.
Mounting on the bow rail seems like a good idea, but I am not sure how I would run the wires up and what I would use for the actual mounts.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
