LED bulb, socket with 24 gauge 8.6" wires, gaskets, and lens for vintage style 1958-1984 (not for Perko) navigation bow light used on classic Boston Whalers. The bulb is a12 volt LED (light emitting diode) light source, which is far superior to conventional bulbs. 14 gauge wire is the most common but 16-18 can also be used. Requires a 3 amp fuse when wired separately, 7.5 amp when wiring with stern light.  This item is a must have for people wanting to restore the original look of their classic Boston Whaler. Will fit the vintage bow lights seen here and here. Not for Perko lights.

Note: The 12V LED bulbs use approximately 1.5 - 2 amps.  16-18 gauge wiring can be used but will be larger than necessary, In this instance,, you can simply snip off some strands to reduce the gauge and then use butt connectors.

Note: We have changed to a brighter LED bulb.  This bulb is taller than the previous LED bulb used and may sit taller than desired in your light housing.  You can either open the seating hole to allow for the socket to sit deeper or try tapping the top of the socket with a rubber ended tool.

It looks to be well made but unfortunately it’s too small

Store owner replied: Hi Thomas, Yes, this kit is for the pre-1984 lights made by BW, not Perko, however we are in the process of carrying the 1984-2002 light as well as the 2003+ light along with their internal kits. We should hopefully have both ready by fall 2025.

The quality of the lens is not very good. The lens was not flat or level at the bottom. I had to use a belt sander on the bottom of it to make it flat and fit properly.

Store owner replied: Hi Richard, We strive to make sure all the parts go on as easily as possible. The red and greens lenses have been glued together (just like OEM) which could cause the unleveled bottom. Please always feel free to reach in the future if something like this occurs. We are happy to replace them.
