Lopolight 1nm 112.5° Starboard Sidelight, vertical mount w/2.5 meter cable
The Lopolight 101-001 is a 1 nautical mile starboard sidelight with a 112.5° green sector, from dead ahead to 22.5° abaft the beam. It mounts vertically, on the hull side, a cabin side or a pulpit bracket. Housing: silver or black anodised aluminium.
Application & COLREG
COLREG Rule 22 allows a 1 nm sidelight only on vessels under 12 m. It is the right light for day boats, RIBs, tenders and small yachts under 12 m – but on any vessel of 12 m or more, leisure or commercial, the sidelights must reach 2 nm, so choose the 301-001 starboard instead.
