Common Concerns Answered
The Navisafe RIB mount uses adhesive; will it stay attached in harsh marine conditions?
The included 3M adhesive is engineered for strong bonding to Hypalon, Polyethylene, and PVC boat materials. For optimal adhesion, ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry prior to application as per the provided instructions. While highly durable, performance can be maximized with proper surface preparation and avoiding immediate submersion post-installation.
Does the Navisafe Navilight Tricolor come with batteries?
No, the Navisafe Navilight Tricolor is powered by three AAA batteries, which are not included with the purchase. Users will need to supply their own AAA batteries to operate the light.
I need a permanent lighting solution, is this light suitable?
This Navisafe Navilight is designed as a portable and versatile lighting solution, particularly for inflatable vessels where permanent wiring can be impractical. For larger vessels requiring a permanent, hardwired system, alternative navigation light models are available.
