Overview
The Hella Marine 003562005 is a 12V incandescent masthead navigation lamp with 2 nautical mile visibility and a black housing. It uses a 12V / 10W SV8.5 bulb (included) and carries an IP54 rating for protection against dust and splashing water. Housing and lens are UV and impact-resistant plastic, which helps it handle sun exposure and the bumps that happen around rigging and hardware.
The snap-lock housing opens without tools, which keeps bulb changes straightforward when you are troubleshooting at the dock or swapping a spare before a night run. The lens is white, and the unit is non-magnetic, which is helpful when mounted near sensitive instruments.
Approvals include IMO Col Reg 72, RINA, USCG, ABYC A-16, and Maritime NZ.

Installation and wiring
This light mounts to a vertical surface. Plan the install so the cable can pass through the base plate cleanly, and make sure the rubber grommet seats fully to reduce water entry at the cable point. Use tinned marine wire and protected connections, especially when the run is exposed to spray and vibration.
It is intended for 12V DC systems. On 24V boats, a suitable DC-DC converter or a 24V-rated navigation light is typically required.
Use on board
This is a practical match for boats that are keeping an incandescent navigation light setup for simple spares and straightforward troubleshooting. It also fits well on refits where you are replacing a tired masthead light and want the same mounting style and service approach used across the Hella Marine 3562 series.
Maintenance and care
Rinse salt film off the lens and housing with fresh water, and avoid abrasive cleaners that can haze plastics over time. Periodically check the grommet and cable entry for a tight fit, and confirm the snap-lock closes fully after a bulb change.
