The latest Ferry Boats are incorporating greater speeds, while demanding even greater Passenger Safety!  As a result, Searchlight Beams must project further in order to increase Safety Response Time, as well as provide more light over a greater surface area, during an emergency.  It is also critical in the design of Fast Craft to minimize Size, Weight and Power Consumption.

The Carlisle & Finch Company has met all of these challenges with two new powerful Families of Searchlights, which include  Light-weight, Solid State Electronic Power Supplies.  The 200 Watt and 350 Watt Searchlights were designed for Fast Ferries, and provide the following important features for the Latest Fast Ferry Designs...

Important Ferry Boat Features

• High Intensity...Tremendous Candlepower (15 to 25 Million!) in compact sizes, provides Long Distance searches, and ensures the necessary "Emergency Response Time", when traveling at high speeds.

• Reduced Size, Weight, and Power...200 and 350 Watt Product Families meet these important criteria for the Latest Fast Craft Designs, with Compact, Light-weight Solid State Ballasts.

• Beam-Size Focus...Operator instantly views Larger Area, by activating remote electric switch.

• Low Center of Gravity...Helps product to withstand Shock and Vibration at Fast Speeds.

• Advanced Precision Reflector...Deeper-dish Electroformed Reflector collects more light, and projects precision 1-Degree Beam. (Virtually indestructible nickel material lasts life of searchlight!).

• Sleek Style...Aerodynamic Shape compliments the latest Streamlined Fast Ferry Designs.

• Detachable IR Filter...Enhances performance of existing on-board night vision systems.

• Upside Down Mounting...Dual Bearing-Race Design, allows Upside Down Mounting.

• Unrestricted Motion (200 Watt only)...Slip-rings provide continuous, uninterrupted, horizontal motion...with no stop points!

• Advanced Joystick...A Single Hand controls Beam-Speed and Direction Simultaneously, freeing up the Operator's other hand to steer Vessel, or hold Binoculars. (Move Joystick to first position for SLOW...push further in same direction to move FAST).
