Perko Inland Series White All-Round Pole Light, 12V, 2nm, 0° Rake

Overview

The Perko White All Round Pole Light - Inland Series is a 12V white all-round navigation pole light for power-driven vessels under 20 meters, or 65.6 feet, in length. It uses a reduced-glare globe, a clear fluted lens, and a 0° rake pole, giving boat owners a practical replacement light for inland and nearshore use where proper all-round visibility matters after sunset, before sunrise, or at anchor.

The light is USCG 2 nautical mile certified and runs with a 12 Volt bulb rated at 9 watts and .69 amps. The Stow-A-Way plug-in pole has a 3/4 inch anodized diameter, a locking collar, black polymer top and collars, and gold-plated contacts for a clean connection in compatible 2-pin bases.

Key features

• White all-round navigation light certified for power-driven vessels under 20 meters, or 65.6 feet, in length.
• USCG 2 nautical mile certification supports use where a 2nm all-round white light is required.
• Reduced-glare globe helps preserve night vision and cuts down wasted light outside the visibility zone.
• 12 Volt incandescent setup with included bulb rated at 9 watts and .69 amps.
• Stow-A-Way plug-in pole with 0° rake for straight upright mounting on compatible bases.
• 3/4 inch anodized pole, clear fluted lens, black polymer top and collars, and gold-plated contacts.
• Locking collar fits Perko 1045 and 1047 2-pin bases with 0° rake.
• Available in multiple pole lengths from 24 inches to 60 inches to suit different deck, console, and stern layouts.

Variants

This Perko Inland Series pole light is offered in several lengths: 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, and 60 inches. The length changes the pole height above the mounting base, which helps match the light to the boat’s windshield, bimini, outboard, or cockpit layout.

Across this range, the confirmed shared details include the white all-round reduced-glare light head, 0° rake, locking collar, 12V bulb, 3/4 inch anodized pole, and compatibility with Perko 1045 and 1047 2-pin bases.

Compatibility and fit

This light is meant for compatible 2-pin plug-in pole light bases, specifically Perko 1045 and 1047 bases with 0° rake. Before replacing an existing pole light, check the base style, pin layout, collar type, and the height needed to keep the light visible above canvas, passengers, motors, or other obstructions.

Use on board

The reduced-glare layout is useful on small powerboats, fishing boats, runabouts, and inland cruising boats where glare from an all-round light can be distracting at the helm. The range of pole lengths makes it easier to keep the light high enough for visibility while still matching the boat’s storage and deck layout.

Installation notes

Install the pole into a clean, compatible base and make sure the locking collar is fully seated before operating the boat. Keep the contacts clean and dry when the light is removed for storage, and inspect the lens, bulb, and collar periodically as part of normal navigation light checks.
