Abstract
An articulated light head for navigational lights on motor boats. The light head incorporates a movable stem plate within an articulator base for manual positioning of the navigational light with respect to its supporting conventional hull pole as attached to the hull of the boat. The movable stem plate is frictionally secured between a stem plate trapper and the articulator base. A light base is fitted on top of the articulator base enclosing both the movable stem plate and stem plate trapper within the light head. A navigation light is supported by the light base and powered by electrical current directed through the light head. The navigation light is protected by a dome which fits over the light base.
