Overview

The Attwood Marine 5940-7 is an all-round deck-mount navigation light for 12V systems. It has 7-inch leads for wiring, mounts flush to the deck, and uses a bayonet lock so the lens and cover can be removed for lamp service without replacing the whole fixture.

This is a low-profile light for boats where a raised base is not wanted. It is commonly used atop the tow point on ski and wakeboard towers, and it also fits other flat mounting spots where a compact all-round light makes more sense than a pole light.

Key features

• 12V DC light with 7-inch leads for a straightforward hard-wired connection
• Flush deck-mount body with no raised base, useful where clearance and a clean install matter
• Bayonet lock holds the lens and cover in place and makes lamp replacement easier
• Installs directly to the mounting surface with two #10 fasteners
• Black housing with a clear lens and an included wedge base lamp

Installation and fit

This light is best suited to a fixed deck or tower surface where the wiring can be brought to the base cleanly. The 7-inch leads work well when the connection point is close to the light or when the wiring is extended below the mounting surface as part of the installation.

Because it sits flush, it is a practical choice for spots where a taller light base would be in the way or look out of place. Buyers should confirm a 12V circuit is available and that the chosen mounting location gives the all-round light the clear placement their boat requires.

Use on board

This fits owners setting up a ski boat or wake boat tower and anyone who needs an all-round navigation light in a compact deck-mounted format. It also suits refit work where easy access to the lamp matters and there is not much room for a taller assembly.
