Dave, Two years ago I found led bulb that were sold as replacements for the aquasignal 25. They were about the same price as a complete Victory fixture. The lenses of the existing aqua signal were still clear so I went for the led bulbs. After one season only, at least one side on the "tree sided bulb" were not working and they show sign of water ingress and corrosion .I did not had kept my receipt...
I will replace them with aquasignal 40 that I found with a good price. The hole pattern is different, I will have to drill one hole but they have a smaller footprint so they fit. With the improve aero dynamic I should maybe gain 0.001 knot. Last year I replaced the stern light with a 40, and it is very efficient. But the look is not as "classic".
