You can also make a socket from the local plumbing supply from a PVC pipe endcap and mount it on your after deck on a recessed fitting machine screw. Back there, it gives you about 330 degrees of coverage with a bright, semi-directional white light, and use a waterproof flashlight as your forward-showing light. Gotta have someone with you to turn it on and off, but that's the only hard bit. Have used ACR C-lights to mark expensive deployed electronics gear at sea during testing sequences, and have always had good luck with them. And ACR always stands behind their products, too --- even slightly out of warranty strobes!
