Taco's new Grand Slam 900 Anchor and Stern Light was created specifically for the safety and convenience of today’s boater. Climbing on the boat gunnel to raise and lower an anchor and stern light is dangerous, time consuming and frustrating. The GS-900 allows boat operators to lift and descend this navigational requirement from the safety of the deck, right under the top and without ever having to climb on the gunnel again. Simply extend the crank handle and rotate the light to the upright position or back to its stowed, towing location. The light runs on 12 volts and consists of four 3-watt LED Cree chips driven by two Mean Well drivers. Its smooth operation, attractive machined aluminum frame and cast stainless-steel rotator make this item a must for any boater. Features and benefits include: Ideal for boats 39' in length or shorter (12 meters or shorter), certified USCG-required for 2-nm, standard 1-14 thread (male) shaft, LED light and shaft included, machined / anodized aluminum body with a light brushed finish, polished Type-316L stainless steel crank handle, folding crank handle locks flush into base, threaded shaft for consistent lift and descent, Delrin bearings for smooth operation, roller bearings in crank assembly, mounts through up to 2 thick hardtops, includes 4 x 1/4 round backing plate (hardware not included), includes 32.75 of tube and light tube length allows for modification by installer to exact height.
