The TACO Rub Rail LED Navigation Light Set is a 2.5-inch low-profile pair meeting ABYC and USCG requirements, rated IP68.
Mounting navigation lights in the rub rail keeps the deck clear and the forward view unobstructed. A bow-mounted fixture stands up where the anchor and rode are handled, and it is the thing most often broken on a foredeck. In the rub rail it is out of the working area entirely.
Two and a half inches is the rail size these fit, so the existing rub rail dimension has to be confirmed before ordering. TACO makes sizes for different rails, and a light sized for a wider rail will not sit correctly in a narrower one.
They meet both ABYC and USCG requirements for sail and power vessels, rated for boats up to 39.4 feet. An IP68 rating covers the immersion a rub rail fitting sees, since that position takes solid water rather than spray. Explore more navigation lights.
