What is the difference between an LED sidelight and a traditional one?

LED sidelights offer numerous advantages over traditional halogen bulb models. They consume less energy, have a longer lifespan, are more resistant to vibrations, and provide a brighter and more uniform light, improving visibility at sea.

How can I tell if a light is MED approved?

MED approved lights are easily recognizable thanks to the CE marking, followed by the identification number of the notified body that carried out the tests. This information is shown on the product label or in the accompanying documentation.

Are blue emergency lights mandatory?

The mandatory nature of blue emergency lights varies depending on local regulations and the type of vessel. However, Nautica Basile strongly recommends the installation of these lights, as they significantly increase safety at sea and facilitate rescue operations in case of need.
