Attwood Marine Masthead/All-Around Lights - Fold Down

Attwood Marine LightArmor™ Fold-Down Masthead & All-Around Lights

When boaters need a navigation light that folds away cleanly, survives saltwater abuse, and delivers dependable all-around visibility, Attwood Marine is a name that consistently rises to the top. Their lineup of fold-down masthead and all-around lights represents some of the most thoughtfully engineered navigation lighting available on the water today — combining cutting-edge LED optics, rugged construction, and flexible mounting options for vessels of all sizes.

The LightArmor™ Advantage

At the heart of Attwood's fold-down masthead offering is the LightArmor™ platform. Achieving 3NM of 360° visibility while drawing a fraction of the power of traditional incandescent lights, Attwood's 3NM LightArmor™ LED Masthead/Anchor light is one of the first of its kind. That kind of reach matters enormously at night, where being seen early is what prevents collisions.

Power efficiency is another standout trait. Attwood's proprietary optics design draws only 1.8W at 12VDC — the lowest power draw of any 2-mile all-round light on the market today. For cruisers watching their battery budgets on extended trips, that distinction is far from trivial.

Built to Handle the Marine Environment

Constructed of corrosion-resistant composites with stainless steel accents, these products were designed for the harsh coastal marine environment. All lights come equipped with a durable folding base cast from Attwood's blend of enhanced 316 stainless steel alloy. That folding base isn't just a convenience feature — it's engineered to collapse without breaking if accidentally struck by a boom or rigging, a real-world protection that incandescent fixed-mount lights simply can't offer.

These lights are USCG certified for boats up to 65' (20m) and meet standards ABYC C-5 & A-16 and USCG CFR 183.810. Compliance isn't an afterthought — it's baked into every model in the lineup.

Product Options Across the Lineup

Attwood's fold-down masthead and all-around light selection covers a wide range of pole lengths and base configurations. The LightArmor™ LED series is available in 12", 24", 36", and 42" aluminum pole lengths for horizontal stainless steel mounting. For boaters who prefer or require traditional incandescent technology, Attwood's incandescent anchor/masthead lights offer three-mile, 360° visibility, include LightArmor™ bases, and feature a robust, easy-to-use design with freshwater and saltwater compatibility — with a simple one-piece lens sealed from water and concealed, protected wiring at the base.

There is also the LightArmor™ Anti-Glare Folding variant, which features a robust design with easy, single-handed cam-lock operation, an articulating head for use in all applications, and an exclusive anti-glare design that preserves night vision.

Long-Term Reliability You Can Count On

Lights are rated for 50,000+ hours of use and feature a 10-year warranty. Whether you are navigating a coastal bay or making an overnight passage, Attwood's fold-down masthead and all-around lights are engineered to keep you visible, compliant, and confident on the water for years to come.
