Purchased this camp light from Costco (on clearance now for $26!) to use as a rear navigation light. It also comes in very handy at the launch to light up the whole area to see what you're doing when you put in/take out at night. Has several levels of brightness and temperatures, so you can run dim or super bright for better visibility in fog. Top separates from the base to carry around as a mini lantern. Has a convenient remote so you don't even have to get out of your chair.

Not sure of its waterproof rating, but mine did tip over into the water briefly once (because I didn't have it strapped down good), and it's still working. USB C rechargeable.

Haven't had to use yet, but it's nice to have onboard, just in case...

(Did use the bucket for a makeshift anchor today though.)

I recently purchased a Saturn CAT396 inflatable cataman from BoatsToGo and am loving it, so I wanted to share my set up and see what others are doing with theirs.
