What all-around light with Radar

[jehines3]

I've searched high and low and can not seem to find a new anchor light to put on the hard top. The old light was a little stubby that mounted on the tower. The tower is staying off the boat for good so I need an anchor light that is at least 24" (open array is about 20" tall with wedge). However I do put the boat on a trailer and next fall will hopefully get it down the road so I want a fold down model.

What is everyone else doing? Suggestions welcome. jh

Perko 1209 Stow A Way all around light.

Comes in 24, 30, and 36 in. lenght, with a fixed surface base mount.

Pole plugs into and seals at base, removable from base for storage.

Call Freeport Marine, in Freeport, NY, ask for Mike.

i just bought the attwood b/c this year when putting it in the driveway hit the telephone wire and snapped the base. it's a fold down style pretty cheap built with a plastic base basically junk but going with it. it's only the twelve inch 47 dollars.

20 inch's tall is the best I could find in a fold down type;

Anytime. It looks to be very sturdy, and since you need to lower it rarely, taking it out of the socket and placing in cabin isn't much of a burden.

I have the short pole, hinge model, and the base isn't substantial enough for a high pole, IMHO.
