Lopolight 1nm 2x112.5° Combined Sidelight, horizontal mount, FB base w/2.5 meter cable
The Lopolight 101-003-FB is a 1 nautical mile combined sidelight – red port and green starboard sectors of 112.5° each in one lantern on the centreline. It mounts horizontally on the FB (flat base) POM mounting system, on a deck, coachroof or other horizontal surface. Housing: silver or black anodised aluminium.
Application & COLREG
COLREG Rule 22 allows a 1 nm sidelight only on vessels under 12 m, and Rule 21 allows sidelights to be combined in one lantern only on vessels under 20 m, carried on the fore-and-aft centreline. That makes this a light for small boats – day boats, RIBs, tenders and small yachts under 12 m. Any vessel of 12 m or more, leisure or commercial, needs 2 nm sidelights.
