Race through the night with Mantagua Led Lights

Any experienced sailor will tell you, racing in low visibility or at night brings with it its own challenges and problems. The difference is quite literally, day and night. The combination of low visibility and high-speed racing can be dangerous if your safety equipment is not up to the challenge. That’s why Mantagua has developed a range of navigation Mantagua LED lights specifically designed for racers.

French Manufacturer Mantagua have been busy building on the developments they made with their hugely popular NAVIPRO lights with a range of navigation lights designed specifically for racing.

Mantagua led lights features

Instead of using a glass coating, as they have done with the NAVIPRO range, Managua led lights have opted to completely encapsulate in resin.

Ultra-durable

The encapsulating resin is designed to be stronger and more durable than glass and ensures that your lights are unaffected by vibrations and UV.

Completely waterproof

The range of Mantagua led lights is IP67 rated, one of the highest levels of protection offered by an IP rating. This rating provides complete protection against ingress of dust and airborne particles. Protection against water and liquids, up to and including immersion in up to one meter of water.

Energy Efficient

These Mantagua led lights operate very low energy to ensure you can keep your lights on and stay safe without worry

Ultra-Light

The Mantagua led light range are the lighter still than their impressively light NAVIPRO range.

Maximum Visibility

Mantagua has ensured that even with the use of resin, no visibility is lost, giving you maximum visibility and ensuring that safety is not compromised.

Conclusion on Mantagua Led Lights

The biggest difference between the NAVIPRO range and the Mantagua led lights is the durability and efficiency of the epoxy resin, which can give you peace of mind that your lights will be able to handle even the toughest sailing conditions. While the Mantagua led lights are slightly lighter, they are also come with a price premium, which may make the NAVIPRO range the best choice for more casual sailors.
