Haven't really changed much... http://www.c-mesales.com/contents/en-us/d25.html If they can't get it right out to you, I will go and pick one up and overnight or priority mail it to you.

I'll dig around- It took me a while to find that one, and it is PERFECT for my boat, so I'd hate to part with it. I THINK I've got another similar one, but can't remember where I stashed it!

I've got a ton of bow lights for some reason, but not stern lights... I think that they tend to get lost easier, since they're usually removable.

John, I don't know if you could get it in time, but this one might look good on the Sun Ray. The one on my Aqua ray looks similar, but has a white plastic globe.

John- I did some digging, and found the light. It's a little different than I remembered it, but it's still and old classic-

A little pitting, but not too bad-

It'll need to have the wires extended, but other than that should all be OK-

Let me know if it'll work for you. I think I've got $15 'invested' in it, that's all I need out of it.
