In reply to B&B Nauticals. Hi B&B, did you get this sorted out? I would try a 25watt flood light as suggested in my post and the coupler from dixiline, sorry to hear, the photo you sent me of your buoy light was very well done, I hope you find the part you need to make it work.

Yes, the 40 watt bulb started to slowly melt the buoy and I used the white PVC 3″ to 1 12″ reducer with a coupler added to the bottom to cover all the buoy area inside. I may add a sleeve inside of that material and I am going to try a 15 watt bulb. I made mine with a gold hanging chain, looks nice but I don’t really trust the Styrofoam to hold up to the heat. I will turn a wood buoy out on the lathe and build one out of wood.
