Thought it was a loose wire at the bottom of the mast as we checked and there was power going up to from the terminal strip near the holding tank.  Closer inspection showed that the Forespar Deck and        Steaming light fixture has taken some kind of impact and is broken.  Anyone have this experience??  I found a new one fairly cheap but also noted a AAA Masthead fixture really cheap, anyone have any experience with AAA Masthead fixtures?
