  • Patent number: 6200009
    Abstract: A marine illuminating device for aiding in the reverse navigation of a watercraft that is powered by an outboard motor. The marine illuminating device includes an electric light that is mounted in an aperture in a cowl of an outboard motor. The electric light is connected through an electric circuit to the alternator/charging system of the outboard motor and to a switch assembly. The switch assembly may be actuated automatically when the outboard motor mode selector is positioned into the reverse mode. Alternatively, the switch may also be actuated manually. Actuation of the switch assembly permits electric current to flow from the alternator/charging system to the electric light, thereby causing the electric light to illuminate.
