I just purchased this little beauty & I have lots of questions! Not sure if this is the correct place to post though.

I’d like to find a lens for this stern light.
Any thoughts on where to start?

That was probably put on by the dealer, so not technically a Sea Star Mustang light.

Find someone w a 3d printer and ya might be able to print a uv stable, durable lense that would work. Scour Fiberglassics library for a pix of 1 that looks similar & check their hardware listing, might get lucky & find a pix there too. And design your own lense in CAD

OR, find a suitable vintage light and swap it out for a complete unit, as stated, not a factory light so other Mustangs sold by different dealers likely used a different light.

Place a want ad @ Fiberglassics classifieds

Spend 2yrs scouring ebay vintage boat hardware/lighting listing, BTDT....

I'd just replace it with a modern equivalent as that pot metal is pitted pretty good. A new lens is going to draw attention to that pitting pdq. BTDT on my 78 Trans Am.

That is unless you're planning on entering the boat in an antique boat show.
