{"title":"Stern lights","description":"\u003ch2\u003eStern lights: white navigation light at the rear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stern light is the white light visible at the rear of the boat.

A stern light must illuminate rearward without obstruction from an outboard motor, swim platform, dinghy, locker, arch, or equipment mounted on the transom. Mounting position matters as much as light output: a high-quality light partially obscured fails to perform its role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe advertised range in nautical miles must align with the boat size and applicable regulations. 2MN models cover many recreational boat uses, but it is essential to verify regulations based on boat length, flag, and intended cruising program. The stern light works with other navigation lights: it cannot be selected in isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting must respect the manufacturer's intended orientation. A vertical light, flat-mounted model, black-masked version, or a light designed for a specific sector must not be tilted or rotated to compensate for mounting constraints. Incorrect orientation can create a visible white sector in the wrong direction or leave the rear area inadequately covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWiring and onboard integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stern light must be controlled alongside appropriate navigation lights based on the boat's operating mode. Plan for protected power, watertight connections, appropriately sized cables, and cable runs that prevent water ingress. On a transom exposed to spray, the watertightness of the connection is often as critical as the housing's watertightness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen installing a port + starboard + stern kit, maintain a clear wiring logic between functions. Side lights and the stern light should form a cohesive set visible from outside. If replacing only the rear light, ensure the color, range, and mounting height remain consistent with existing lights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated collections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo complement or compare your installation, see the \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/collections\/feux-de-navigation\" title=\"Feux de navigation bateau\"\u003enavigation lights\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/collections\/feux-lateraux\" title=\"Feux latéraux bateau\"\u003eside lights\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/collections\/feux-de-hune\" title=\"Feux de hune bateau\"\u003emasthead lights\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/collections\/feux-de-mouillage\" title=\"Feux de mouillage bateau\"\u003eanchor lights\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"\/en-us\/collections\/feux-combines\" title=\"Feux combinés bateau\"\u003ecombination lights\u003c\/a\u003e collections.
