Overview

The Lopolight 201-011 Series is a 3 NM, 225° white masthead navigation light with an integrated 6W decklight for vertical mounting.

It runs on 10-32VDC for 12V and 24V systems, comes pre-cabled with a 15 m lead, and carries an IP68 ingress rating for exposed installations. The compact body measures 54 x 38.7 x 72.2 mm, with an anodized aluminum housing, a PMMA lens, and A4 stainless mounting hardware.

This setup is commonly used as a masthead (steaming) light on power-driven vessels under way, while the built-in decklight adds forward illumination on the foredeck without adding a separate fixture. It is sized for vessels in the 12-20 m range.

What’s included

• Navigation light with attached 15 m cable
• 2 mounting screws (M6 x 8 mm)
• Installation guide

Installation and setup

Mount the light on a vertical surface where the 225° sector has a clear view forward, then secure it using the supplied M6 fasteners. Before drilling, plan the cable route so the 15 m lead can be brought to the switch panel with a drip loop and protected from chafe where it passes through mast bases, deck glands, or hardtops.

Use marine-grade sealed connections and keep splices out of standing water. The minimum feed wire gauge is 0.5 mm2 (AWG22), which helps when tying into existing navigation-light wiring runs.

Compatibility and fit

The masthead beam is 225° and rated for 3 nautical miles, making it a fit for boats in the 12-20 m length bracket that require a masthead (steaming) light. Verify mounting height, placement, and local navigation-light rules for your vessel and operating area before final installation.

Use cases on board

This configuration suits cruisers and sportfishing boats that want a single masthead fixture that also throws useful light onto the foredeck for anchoring work, line handling, and night docking. It also works well on sailboats that carry a separate steaming light for motoring, while keeping deck illumination tidy.
