New boat to me, was a repo, PO went to jail and couldn't pay mechanic's bill.
Came without the bimini (as well as the door to the head).
The white stern/anchor light seems like it was mounted on the bimini.  I have a pair of wires exiting a small clamshell outboard next to helmsman.
I see no other/prior arrangement, so assume this was from the factory.
I plan on replacing the bimini, but wondering if there are other options for the light.

Also, what is the normal head door?  I was thinking replacing with a piece of starboard.

    Maybe the PO removed the head door to get accustomed to people watching him do his business?

    FWIW the head door in my 2000 Four Winns was wood with laminate.  Starboard would probably work but would be heavy and the larger sizes tend to warp somewhat in my experience.

    Give Great Lakes Skipper a call. They might have the original door in stock.

    Thanks, I will call them.  I measured mine today, so I know what to look for. 18" x 58" x 3/4"
