Aqua Signal Replacement

Our Aqua Signal Series 41 stern light needs to be replaced. Any recommendations on something of newer technology, such as sealed LED fixtures, that you have had good experience with?

Thanks!

While I do not have experience with this product, I have purchased other products from this company and have been happy with the quality

Aqua Signal 44. Sealed, LED, can use same mount holes as 41, too.

Thanks!
Are you looking to replace the entire fixture or just the bulb?
I replaced only the bulb on mine from Dr. LED below. Download the PDF table (at top left of page) and look up the bulb you need.

Thanks! I'm looking to replace the entire fixture. The current one's case is damaged beyond repair.

We did the same. Replaced an old AS 25 light that had seen better days with a newish AS 41 off e bay and put an LED inside it. Far brighter and a real white light for little money.

Re: Aqua Signal Replacement

I switched to Hella marine NaviLED PRO a few years ago. I prefer them over the Aqua Signal units I’ve had over the years. The lenses were destroyed by UV a couple years after installation. I got tired of replacing lenses. Replacing bulbs is a thing of the past.
