Mine is in a big-ass steel box. I can't even figure out how it comes off!

Of note, for anchoring you will still need a light in addition to the steaming/deck light as an anchor light needs to be "all round". I just use a portable one.

How about a Windex light for anchoring? Somebody must make one with a small solar cell and rechargeable battery that would fit on top of the mast and eliminate wires down the mast. Also a remote to turn it on and off so the bulb doesn't wear out.
