Hello all,
I was working on my mast yesterday and needing to replace the masthead light
and the steaming/deck light. I'm using a mega light mast head light up top and
was planning to use one for a deck light. I have a SS fitting that attaches to
the mast and allows installation of a light on top and on bottom.
So, I have two questions in that regard;1. There is only a single two wire run
to the light now. Which would lead me to believe that they are both wired to
the same switch. This doesn't seem like a great idea. Seems if the deck light
is on while you're underway at night, you'll have no night vision and if you
have your steaming light is on when at anchor it will appear that you're
underway... Do I need to be running another wire to switch theseindependently?
2. Is the megalight a suitable choice for a deck light/anchor light?
I also have another question about the whisker pole car. I have a track on the
front of the mast but the car was corded in place and it seems someone tried to
free it up and cracked it. I got the old one off and need to replace it. Any
suggestions? It seems the best use for the track and car is to store the pole
when not in use, and easy deployment when needed, is that correct? I have never
actually used one before but, it seems a good tool to have and utilize.
Thanks for any insights/advice,Danny
