Lopolight 2nm 135° Stern/360° Anchor Light, horizontal mount, FB base w/0.7 meter cable (sailboats)
The Lopolight 201-030-FB is a two-function light: a 2 nautical mile 135° white stern light and a 360° white all-round anchor light in one housing. It mounts horizontally on the FB (flat base) POM mounting system, with a pre-wired 0.75 m cable. Housing: silver or black anodised aluminium.
Application & COLREG
The stern light shows under way with the sidelights; at anchor the 360° white is the anchor light (Rule 30), so one fitting at the stern covers both. Lopolight specifies the 2 nm version for vessels under 12 m: on a small sailing boat under engine, the all-round white with sidelights also meets Rule 23 for power-driven vessels under 12 m.

Installation
Mount on the centreline and align with the fore-and-aft line. Red wire positive, black negative; a reversed connection does no damage. Use a slow fuse or breaker below 2 A, keep the housing isolated from ground and connect the cable screen to ground. For an even lower profile the black FB base can be left out and the light bolted from below with M4 screws – the thread in the light is only 6 mm deep, so longer screws damage it.
