The bulb in our mast head light is burned out. I keep forgetting to go take it out so I can find a new one. I'd like to run to West Marine at lunch today to grab a new one, does anyone know what the part number for the bulb is?

Thanks,
David

Well, after lots of searching, I think I've found the bulbs online. The problem is, they don't show pictures of the bulbs. I'm still going to try to find them locally before ordering them in the blind, but if you're looking for replacement parts, this seems to be a good place to start:http://www.pyacht.net then search for "aqua signal", then "series 25" which seems to be the right ones. I tried several times to get the right URL into the text here, but it never got all the text and you ended up with a bad URL. The bulbs are about $7/pair which still seems steep to me, but they also have replacement lenses, etc.

The actual part number off of the bulb is: A8S25A 12V 10W but so far I haven't been able to cross reference that with anything on the internet. Ideally I'd like to find some LEDs to replace these with. Anyone have any leads on where I might find those?

Did you consider LED with a diode to cut off at dawn?

Do you have a part number or resource? I'd love to move to LEDs if I can, but I've been unable to find an all around festoon to replace the masthead light. I've found a directional, which could replace all the other lights except the masthead.
