Choosing a red-and-green LED bow light for your boat comes down to how much visibility you need at night, how much protection you want from water and corrosion, and how much you are ready to spend. The four options here in marine electrical lighting sit on a wide listed-price spread-from $13.94 to $55.79-so the real task is matching the feature set to your boat and your night-use habits.
Quick Take
If a higher visibility rating and IP67 waterproofing matter most, the LED Marine Navigation Lights - Red & Green Bow Light, IP67 Waterproof, 3NM Visib is the one to look at, but it is also at the top of the price range. If you prefer a mid-priced single light with a large LED count, the Marine Boat Navigation Light 24LED Red Green LED Port Starboard Signals Bow L sits in the middle of the spread. If you want a lower-cost way in, the Pair Red & Green 8 LED Navigation Lights Marine Bow Light Lamp for Boat Pontoon is the entry point at the bottom of the range.

Product Notes
Marine Boat 12V LED RED GREEN BOW Navigation LIGHT 2 Nautical Miles M20
The TecNiq-branded option is the one to consider if you want a compact surface-mount LED with a stated 2-nautical-mile range and a lifetime warranty. It runs on 9-14V DC, draws between 0.73A and 0.97A, and includes a red/green wire pigtail for hookup. The product is identified with a U.S. country of origin and the part number M20-2S00-1. At the upper end of the price spread, this is not the cheapest path into red/green navigation lighting. If you prefer a lower-price unit or a set with two lights, another product in this comparison will serve that better.
Marine Boat Navigation Light 24LED Red Green LED Port Starboard Signals Bow L
This mid-priced option focuses on LED density and sealing. It is built around 24 LEDs-12 red and 12 green-with a polycarbonate lens, stainless steel housing, and a sealed design that includes sealed seams, glue at the wire outlet, and a breathable film at the bottom. It appears as a single light (labeled 24led Navigation Light-1pc) and comes with two screws for installation. Choose it when you want more LEDs per housing and a sealed unit without moving to the top of the price range. Just keep in mind this is one light, not a pair.
LED Marine Navigation Lights - Red & Green Bow Light, IP67 Waterproof, 3NM Visib
This is the product to look at when maximum visibility matters most. The feature set includes a 3NM visual range with USCG 3NM compliance cited, an IP67 waterproof rating, and a copper-plated zinc housing for corrosion and UV protection. The manufacturer part number is AS2, and a two-year warranty is included. At the top of the price range and the longest price bar in this comparison, it asks the most of the four lights. If a 3NM-capable red/green bow light with marine-grade waterproofing is your priority, this is the one to weigh against the lower-price options here.
Pair Red & Green 8 LED Navigation Lights Marine Bow Light Lamp for Boat Pontoon
The EEEKit option is the lowest-priced product here, and it is also the only one that clearly includes two lights. Each lamp uses 8 LEDs in a fully sealed ABS housing that is 100% waterproof, and the hookup is red/black wire for easy installation. The signal is listed at 2NM, and the application list includes touring cars, pontoons, fishing boats, speed boats, and more, with the function described as bow, stern, or running lights. The trade-off is the ABS housing and a signal that stops at 2NM, so it is not the 3NM option in this group.
