THIS LISTING IS FOR A VINTAGE, PERKO POLISHED BRASS BEEHIVE STERN LIGHT. IT IS DESIGNED WHERE YOU CAN RECESS MOST OF THE SHAFT BELOW DECK LEVEL. THERE IS A PUSH BUTTON BALL/LOCK QUICK RELEASE PIN AT THE BASE THAT ALLOWS IT TO SLIDE RETRACT FROM APROX 22″ DOWN TO APROX 7″ TALL. (SEE PHOTOS 9 – 11) THIS WILL MAKE IT A LOT LESS LIKELY TO GET DAMAGED WHEN THE BOAT IS COVERED. PERFECT FOR A VINTAGE RUNABOUT. IT HAS BEEN RECENTLY REWIRED WITH A NEW 1156 SIZE SOCKET AND HAS A NEW LOW DRAW LED BULB INSTALLED AND IS READY TO MOUNT AND USE, THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON BULB SOCKETS AND YOU CAN EASILY REPLACE THE LED BULB FOR A MORE TRADITIONAL INCANDESCENT TYPE BULB. IT MEASURES APROX 22 1/4″ TALL, THE BEEHIVE LENS IS THE LARGER APROX 2 1/2″ DIAMETER ONE AND HAS “PERKO” WITH A “C” UNDER IT, EMBOSSED ON THE TOP. THE FLAG IS APROX 18″ X 12″ AND IS NEW WITH SEWN STRIPES AND EMBROIDERED STARS. THE HEAVY RING ABOVE THE BOTTOM FLAG ATTACHMENT SPLIT RING IS TO WEIGH IT DOWN TO KEEP THE BOTTOM OF THE FLAG FROM RISING, IT’S EASILY REMOVED IF YOU DON’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
