WHY IT MATTERS

Let your yacht’s name glow after sunset.

An illuminated yacht sign makes a lasting impression at the marina, during evening cruises, and at events on the water. Your yacht’s name stays visible and striking long after the sun goes down.

We design lighting that’s elegant, not overpowering, using marine-ready LEDs and sealed construction.

THE BASICS

What is an illuminated yacht sign?

An illuminated yacht sign is a dimensional name or logo with built-in LED lighting. Light can glow through the letter faces, around the edges, or behind the letters for a halo effect.

How they’re built

01

Letters

Stainless steel or acrylic dimensional letters.

02

LEDs

Low-voltage LEDs designed for marine use.

03

Sealing

Sealed construction to protect against water.

04

Wiring

Connected to your boat’s electrical system safely.

OPTIONS

Halo-Lit Letters

02

03

Edge-Lit Panels

Warm white light usually looks more refined on a yacht than bright colored lighting, and it’s easier on the eyes at night.

INSTALLATION

PRICING

What do illuminated yacht signs cost? Here’s what drives the price.

Every project is quoted for its size, materials, and location, so we don’t publish one-size-fits-all prices. Share a few details and we’ll send a clear, itemized quote before anything is made. No surprises.

What affects the price

  • Letter size and count
  • Lighting style
  • Materials and finish
  • Wiring complexity
  • Coordination with your marine electrician
  • Install location

PLAN AHEAD

Plan your power

Illuminated signs need power, so a little coordination goes a long way.

  • Identify where the sign will connect to power
  • Coordinate with your marine electrician if needed
  • Check local rules on boat lighting while underway
  • Choose a switch or timer setup
  • Allow time for custom fabrication and testing

Decorative lighting rules can differ while underway versus docked. Confirm with your captain or marine authority.
