Lopolight 2nm 2x112.5° Combined Sidelight, vertical mount w/2.5 meter cable
The Lopolight 201-004 is a 2 nautical mile combined sidelight – red port and green starboard sectors of 112.5° each in one lantern on the centreline. It mounts vertically, on the hull side, a cabin side or a pulpit bracket. Housing: silver or black anodised aluminium, or white ceramic-coated aluminium.
Application & COLREG
A combined sidelight is only permitted on vessels under 20 m (COLREG Rule 21), carried on the centreline – typically on the bow pulpit or stem. At 2 nm it meets Rule 22 for vessels of 12–20 m, the range Lopolight specifies, and more than covers the 1 nm needed under 12 m. From 20 m, port and starboard sidelights must be separate lights.
Complete the Navigation Light Set
Under COLREG a vessel underway shows sidelights and a stern light; a power-driven vessel adds a masthead light forward. To complete the set:
