Nav light lenses

Can one of you point me to a place where I can buy new nav light lenses for the 31 TE? Pt and STBD only. One fell off in shipping and one fell off transiting the locks here in Seattle.

Fisheries Supply here has some that look like ours but are not.

Thanks for any help. That was pretty much the only damage shipping up from Virginia.

Consider replacing both lights entirely with new (properly sealed) LED equipment less subject to moisture damage; or even moving them to the wheelhouse top where the don't get doused by every wave. The rewiring isn't that big a deal. One more design issue with these boats.

Good point. Haven't bought them yet and the price differential isn't that much.
Thanks much.

If I were in your position needing to replace one I would go LED as well. Hella Marine makes a port and starboard similar in size to the old Aqua Signal.

Here is a link to them at Defender: http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?pat ... &id=586109

I installed the LEDs depicted by Kevin. Love 'em but they are not cheap. Search my posts with keyword led if you want to see one installed

If your lenses fell out I would not bother finding a new lens as would not this be liable to fall out as well. Far better to dig a bit deeper in your pocket now and fit some good new lights. As for LEDs some of the guys on my side of the pond have mixed opinions, no lamps like salt water but some of the guys say LEDs really hate the stuff. If you will have a motor running or not going long distances it might be worth considering is it worth the extra cost against the energy saved.
