Why Professional Navigation Light Installation Matters
1. Safety and Compliance
International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs) dictate strict requirements for navigation lights based on vessel size and function. A professional installation ensures your yacht meets these legal standards, protecting you from both safety risks and potential fines.
2. Reliable Visibility
Correctly installed lights enhance your yacht’s visibility to nearby vessels, crucial during night sailing or poor weather conditions.
3. Long-Term Durability
Marine environments expose lights and wiring to saltwater, moisture, and vibration. Professional installation with marine-grade materials extends the lifespan of your system.


Common Problems Solved by YachtService.me
Here are some issues yacht owners frequently encounter—and how our Boka Bay yacht service provides solutions:

• Incorrect Installation – Lights placed or wired incorrectly can make your yacht non-compliant. We reconfigure setups to meet COLREGs.
• Light Malfunctions – Exposure to harsh elements leads to failures; we repair or replace damaged fixtures.
• Wiring Corrosion – Saltwater corrodes wiring quickly. We use corrosion-resistant materials for lasting connections.
• Upgrading to LEDs – Switching to LED requires compatibility checks. We ensure seamless integration and maximum brightness.
• Power Supply Problems – Dim or flickering lights signal power issues. We adjust systems for consistent performance.
• Waterproofing Failures – Poor sealing lets moisture in; we install fully waterproof, marine-grade housings.
• Faulty Switches and Controls – Worn-out switches are replaced for smooth operation.
• Battery Drain – Inefficient wiring can reduce battery life; we optimize setups for energy efficiency.
• System Interference – Poor wiring can affect radios and radars. We troubleshoot and eliminate conflicts.
• Regulatory Failures – If your yacht doesn’t meet standards, we bring systems back to compliance.

Expert Tips from Yacht Technicians

1. Choose LED Over Halogen – LEDs offer brighter light, lower energy use, and longer lifespan.
2. Inspect Regularly – Corrosion and moisture damage often go unnoticed until failure. Schedule routine checks.
3. Invest in Marine-Grade Fixtures – Standard lights won’t withstand salt and humidity. Always go marine-grade.
4. Seal All Fittings – Proper waterproofing prevents costly repairs.
5. Upgrade Wiring When Replacing Lights – Old wiring reduces efficiency. Modern upgrades improve reliability.
6. Test Before Every Voyage – A quick check of all navigation lights avoids potential compliance or safety issues.
