    I have an H-28 i’m resoring and my running lights are Wilcox Crittenden bronze or brass horizontalteardrop casting, very pretty, very traditional. I am missing one cover casting, the red and green colored glass incerts, and also need to redo the plug socket; or replace the whole light. I have called W C and they discontinued the lights years ago, no help with replacements. I've called every supplier I know. Any ideas short of taking the existing lights to a small foundery??? and the colored glass???? and the socket???
    any help would be great, and I imagine there must be a number of wood boat owners out there in the same fix.

    Try Brass and Bounty Nautical Antiques. I think BrassNBounty.com is their web page. Let me know how you make out as I'm looking for a brass oil resivoir bottom for a similar WC anchor light.
