Hella Marine 2NM Masthead 12V Navigation Light (Black Housing)
The Hella Marine 2840 (Hella 12V Global Reference: 2LT 002 840-001) is a classic, ultra-reliable 2 Nautical Mile (2NM) Masthead navigation light designed for powerboats and sailing vessels up to 12 meters (39 feet) in length. Engineered to emit a crisp 225° forward arc of white light, it meets international IMO COLREG 72, USCG, and ABYC A-16 navigation safety standards for night cruising.
Constructed with a heavy-duty, UV-resistant black thermoplastic housing and a high-grade PMMA acrylic lens, the 2840 features Hella Marine's signature snap-lock housing base. This design allows tool-free bulb access and maintenance while keeping internal electrical contacts completely protected from moisture, salt spray, and vibration.
