Figure 1

1. Position the light base either on the bow for combination sidelights or the stern or gunwale for all-round lights. Be sure that the mounting surface is flat and that the selected area will accommodate the base dimensions. Base angle and position must properly place light used in base.

2. Using the template provided, locate the base center line parallel to the boat fore-and-aft center line and carefully mark the center installation hole and the screw holes. Drill 1-3/8'' diameter hole being very careful not to crack or break the gelcoat finish, and sand to remove burrs from around the edge of the hole. Drill the pilot screw holes. (Figure 2)

3. Apply sealant between deck and light base. Fasten base in place with stainless steel screws.

Note: On some installations you may have to connect the wires then push them back through wire hole prior to screwing down the base.
