Looking for this part

Looking for this part:

Oday 25 1977

 

[Ross]

That is probably called your steaming light.

Ross - I am looking to replace the broken plastic part of the steaming light. Do you know of anyone who might sell this piece?

 

[Tim R.]

LJH, replace the whole unit with a Forespar ML2. Now you will also have a deck light.

Check with the chandlery here to see if Dave sells them. I could not find it myself.

Looks like...

a Perko steaming light. A replacement from DEF (p. 307) might be a Whitecap bow light (225 degree) for about $12.

Further, due to a later post: the plastic piece is probably a custom made product and no longer available. Tim makes an excellent suggestion.

You can buy a perko steaming light that will fit on the front of your mast and do away with that bracket.

Is it the mounting bracket that broke? Or do you need to replace the clear plastic lens? If it is the bracket, Rudy at D&R may have one, however....I suspect that the replacement light that Joe suggested will be less costly than a new bracket. That PERKO light was used on later O'DAY boats (just make sure you get the Steaming, also know as Masthead, light and not the sternlight that PERKO makes that looks almost identical.
If the clear lense is broken, again..Rudy probably has one, but I'd check a local marine store (bring old lense or the top part of the light to check fit) or perhaps DEFENDER on the web.
