I would like to replace about light assembly for port and starboard.I'm not sure who sells The Electrical components for this or where to get them? Starboard starboard light flickers on and off from a bad connection so I just want to replace The whole assembly.Any help would be greatly appreciated.I'm a first-time boat owner this is my first boatYou came with 300 hours on the engine And the boat is in very good condition.

It could just be a loose connection with the bulb. Take off the cover and clean the tabs that hold the bulb and bend them slightly to hold the bulb tighter. If you do replace the whole thing I believe they are Perko brand lights.

Welcome aboard BOC.

You should have access to the wiring via and anchor locker. May want to check there for a loose connection.

As far as replacements. There are many to pick from. If yours are like mine pay close attention to the mounting area so you do not get ones that are to large for where they mount. Defender.com has good prices on just about everything. Better prices than West Marine that's for sure.

Here is a link to the LED ones Defender carries.

I have the perko part # down at my boat. I will get that to you. In the meantime check your wire connections inside your anchor locker hatch inform of your v berth. Most likely corroded and/or weak connection there.
