River inspectors are never up that late, so you're not likely to be stopped, so to my mind as long as any light can be seen at 200 yds range will do?

I was thinking today , it's quite odd with the amount of new members that work for the EA that have joined the forum over the last few months not one of them has bothered to reply . I would have thought it was a question that they would instantly know .

Based on what I had on my old Conquest the smallest ones in the shop should be fine.

Remember that if you venture onto BW's property they may expect a tunnel light as well. 50% of a pair of car foglights covers that one nicely.

While we are on nav lights, anyone any idea if the filters are possible spare parts? Some life form has abstracted my starboard one and making a matching pair means 2 x lights otherwise, at an apparent £40 each or thereabouts.

Two beers please, my friend is paying.
