where to get replacement bulbs?

When you need a new bulb for your navigation lights on your boat, where do you find them? I need a 12V 2M #906 3900 series bulb for the rear (white) navigation light on my boat. I don't know if this is a fairly standard, easy to find bulb or very specific to my boat. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

That's a standard size. Bait shop, fleet farm, auto parts store etc....

I'd also recommend carrying a spare. For 99 cents you don't have to worry about getting caught with a burnt out one in the middle of leech lake on a pitch black night and then having to drive to the harbor where your dad stores his $50k ranger boat and climbing in there like a thief in the night to "borrow" his anchor light. That happened to this guy I know whistle

I upgraded my nav lights to LED. Less battery drain and never need replacement.

Upgrading is a bit more than the $1.99 you'll spend on a new bulb though.

I did the same thing late last year. Next upgrade: trailer lights. I love LED lighting.

You can find those regular bulbs at almost any gas station too.

I did the trailer lights first because trailer lights always want to be a PITA.

Also wired up runway lights on my trailer to help with loading at dark launches. Now I need some sort of ILS system so I can land it in thick fog, LOL.
