Bi-color Bow Light
A bi-color bow light is a type of marine navigation light that combines both a red and green light in a single unit. It is typically mounted on the forward part of a vessel, known as the bow. This light is essential for safe navigation, as it clearly indicates the direction in which the boat is heading to other vessels, especially in conditions of reduced visibility.

LED technology: Most modern bow lights use energy-efficient LED bulbs for long life.
Visibility: The range of the light, measured in nautical miles, varies based on regulations and the size of the vessel.
