Topic: Mounting Tri-Color Light to Masthead
Hello Everyone! I recently purchased a OGM Tri-Color/Anchor/Strobe light for the masthead. I also purchased the mounting bracket that is made for it. It is not clear to me how to mount it though as the bracket is not long enough to mount it to the side of the mast below the casting that holds the pulleys for the halyards without the light fixture being to low and obscured by the mast. And it looks like a difficult proposition to try and mount the light on the casting that contains the halyard pulleys because of the issue of the mounting fasteners interfering with the halyards, etc. So far, my best idea is to mount a piece of aluminum flat stock about 3/16" thick to the mast and then mount the OGM bracket to that. Does anyone have any suggestions about this light mounting? I'm eager to hear from you veterans before I start drilling holes! Cheers Brian
