2003 190 NANTUCKET Navigation Lamp

Postby Masbama » Thu Jun 23, 2022 10:19 pm

Q1: where can replacement parts for the combined sidelight lamp for 2003 190 Nantucket (as shown below) be purchased?

I want to buy a replacement lens. I cannot find a source of a replacement lens. I don't want to buy an entire new lamp assembly.

I can press the lens and twist it counter-clockwise; it will come off.

ASIDE: This lamp may have been used in other models, such as a 170 MONTAUK.

Contact Sue at Twin Cities Marine in Wisconsin to get advice on what replacement parts are available for the combined sidelights lamp at the bow of your 2003 190 NANTUCKET.

I would remove the lens and polish it with a plastic polish (see link below).

I used the product linked below on my Outrage windshield and was really impressed.

Thanks Phil.

The lens cap has a wire that broke off. I can try to repair [the break in the wire] with solder, but I usually make things worse when I attempt that type of repair.

The nice folks at Nauset marine were very helpful. They had the part on their website--but it has been discontinued.

They also told me that the part is made by Aqua Signal. I will call Aqua-Signal on Monday, June 27, 2022, to see if their lamp is still available. If the Aquat Signal lamp is not available, I will search online..

ASIDE: Thanks to Jim for starting this new thread.

Can the lamp assembly be separated from the chafe guard base? If so, consider replacing with a Perko combination light. You may need to drill and tap holes in chafe guard base.
