Riverside Rowing & Sculling Lights – Simple, Secure, No-Drill Boat Lighting

Looking for waterproof rowing or sculling lights that don’t require drilling into your boat? Riverside lights provide bright, rechargeable lighting with a strong but removable no-drill mounting system, making them ideal for rowing boats, racing shells, sculls, kayaks and paddleboards.

Strong, removable mounts – no drilling required

One of the biggest advantages of the Riverside lighting system is the mount.

There is no need to drill holes or permanently modify your boat. The mounts use high-strength 3M adhesive pads to create an extremely secure fixing to the deck while still allowing the mount to be removed if required.

This makes Riverside particularly suitable for valuable rowing shells and sculls where drilling into the hull or deck is undesirable.

Once fitted, the mount allows the light to be quickly attached and removed for charging, storage or use on another compatible mount.

Safety lanyard for extra security

Every Riverside light includes a lanyard attachment point, with a corresponding attachment point on the mount.

Adding a safety lanyard provides a second level of security and helps prevent the light being lost overboard if it is accidentally knocked by an oar, branch or other object.

Bright OSRAM LEDs & 100+ hour battery life

Riverside lights use bright OSRAM LED technology combined with a USB rechargeable battery.

Selected flashing modes can provide more than 100 hours of runtime, making the lights particularly useful for regular early-morning and evening rowing.

The LEDs are enclosed in a fully waterproof housing designed for demanding conditions on the water, including rain, spray and accidental immersion.

What lights do I need on a rowing boat?

Rowers and scullers need to make sure their boat is visible when using waterways in darkness or poor visibility. The exact lighting requirements can vary according to the waterway, navigation authority and local rules.

For example, different rules can apply on sections of the River Thames, so always check the current requirements for the waterway you are using before setting out.

Riverside lights provide a simple way to add highly visible fore and aft lighting without permanently modifying your boat.

More than just a light mount

The Riverside mounting system uses a versatile action-camera-style fitting.

Once the mount is installed, it can also be used with compatible equipment such as an action camera for rowing technique and training footage, or a different light when additional illumination is required.
