DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar Dimensions and Bow Angle Adjustments

Each of the three independent light sections measures 10 inches long, 2-7/8 inches deep, and 3-3/8 inches tall. When joined together, the overall footprint changes as the outer sections are angled. This is why measuring both width and front-to-back space is important.

*The 90° overall-width figure is reproduced from the supplied Outrigger Outdoors graphic and should be physically verified before being used for installation planning. These are illustrated configurations, not a verified continuous mechanical adjustment range. Confirm measurements and hardware clearance before drilling.

What Is a Duck Boat Bow Angle?

Here, bow angle refers to the included angle between the port and starboard bow edges when viewed from above. A pointed bow generally has a smaller included angle; a broader bow has a larger one. This is different from hull deadrise. Rounded and squared-off bows may not have one meaningful included angle, so the actual mounting surface matters more than a single number.

For more examples of adjustable mounting layouts, read our adjustable duck boat bow-light mounting guide.

How to Check Whether DuraNav Will Fit Your Duck Boat

1. Measure usable bow width. Measure the actual area where the light sections would mount, rather than relying on the boat's advertised beam width.
2. Identify the bow shape. Look from above to determine whether the front deck is pointed, tapered, rounded, squared, or nearly straight.
3. Measure front-to-back clearance. Compare your available space with the illustrated assembly depths, allowing for brackets, fasteners, and wiring.
4. Check mounting obstacles. Look for trolling motors, cleats, rails, grab bars, navigation lights, and other equipment. Verify that the mounting surface is structurally suitable.
5. Plan the wiring route. Measure the path to the intended power and control connections, then review the DuraNav Short Kit vs. Long Kit guide to select a suitable harness.

Which DuraNav Layout Should You Consider?

Wide or nearly straight bows: Consider the straight or wider-angle connected arrangement if mounting space allows. Moderately tapered bows: Consider a connected angled arrangement that follows the bow contour. Sharply pointed bows: A tighter configuration may help, but verify depth and hardware clearance. Custom or obstructed bows: Separately positioned sections may offer more flexibility.

These are mounting options to evaluate, not guaranteed fits for a specific hull. Refer to the DuraNav installation and user guide before drilling or fastening.

Duck Boat Manufacturer Compatibility and Mounting Examples

The manufacturer photographs below are representative boats, not confirmed DuraNav installations. They illustrate different bow shapes and front-deck layouts that owners can evaluate. Fitment depends on the individual model, mounting surface, clearance, and wiring route.

About the estimated bow angles: These are approximate visual estimates for representative boat styles, not measured manufacturer specifications. Actual angles vary by model and mounting location. Do not use these estimates to drill holes, fabricate brackets, or confirm fitment; measure your specific boat first. No numerical estimate is provided for Phowler/Pintail because its model variations are not sufficiently characterized.

Havoc Duck Boats

Representative Havoc bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–115°, suggesting a moderately to sharply tapered bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a more angled connected arrangement, using the 100° example as a starting reference. On a narrower Havoc bow, check that the angled assembly follows the available deck edge without obstructing other bow accessories.

Gator Trax Duck Boats

Representative Gator Trax bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–120°, suggesting rounded or tapered bow edges. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a connected angled layout where the edges provide support, or separated sections where the contour changes. For rounded front edges, assess the mounting surface at each individual section instead of relying on one overall bow angle.

Excel Duck Boats

Representative Excel bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 85–110°, suggesting a more pointed, tapered bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tighter connected arrangement, comparing the 90° and 100° illustrated footprints. Compare both the width and front-to-back footprint of the tighter layouts before selecting mounting points.

Gator-Tail Duck Boats

Representative Gator Tail bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–120°, suggesting a tapered front deck. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate an angled connected layout, with the 100° example as a useful comparison. Check the available deck area around grab bars and other equipment commonly fitted to shallow-water hunting boats.

War Eagle Duck Boats

Representative War Eagle bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–115°, suggesting duckbill or tapered bow features. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a more angled connected layout where the available mounting surface follows the taper. A tapered or duckbill-style front deck may favor an angled arrangement, provided each mounting point has solid support.

Xpress Duck Boats

Representative Xpress bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 85–110°, suggesting a pointed or modified-V bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tighter connected layout similar to the illustrated 90° or 100° arrangements. On pointed bows, compare the tight and moderate illustrated layouts and verify bracket clearance.

SeaArk Duck Boats

Representative Seaark bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 100–130°, suggesting a broader tapered bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a moderate-to-wide connected arrangement, comparing the 100° and 140° examples. The wider illustrated configuration may be worth considering when the usable bow deck is broad enough for the connected assembly.

Pro-Drive Duck Boats

Representative Pro Drive bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 95–125°, suggesting a broad but tapered bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a moderately angled connected arrangement, or separated sections if accessories interrupt the mounting line. If bow accessories interrupt a continuous mounting line, independent section placement may provide an alternative.

Go-Devil Duck Boats

Representative Go Devil bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–120°, suggesting a tapered or squared-off bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate an angled connected arrangement on tapered models or a straighter layout on squared-off models. On squared-off models, a more open or straight configuration may be more practical than a tight angled arrangement.

Edge Duck Boats

Representative Edge bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 80–105°, suggesting a sharply pointed bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tight connected arrangement, using the illustrated 90° and 100° footprints for comparison. Pay particular attention to front-to-back space when evaluating a tightly angled layout on a sharply pointed bow.

Legendcraft Duck Boats

Representative Legendcraft bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–115°, suggesting a pointed or modified-V bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tighter connected arrangement that follows the deck taper. Evaluate whether the outer sections can follow the taper while keeping the center light aimed ahead.

Uncle J Custom Boats

Representative Uncle J Custom bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 85–115°, suggesting a custom pointed or tapered bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tighter connected arrangement if the mounting surfaces line up, or separated sections for unusual contours. Because custom layouts differ, use a top-down bow photo and actual measurements to choose between connected and separated sections.

Lowe Roughneck Duck Boats

Representative Lowe Roughneck bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 90–120°, suggesting a tapered modified-V bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a moderately angled connected arrangement, depending on railing and deck clearance. Consider bow rail placement and available flat mounting areas before choosing an angled configuration.

Alumacraft Duck Boats

Representative Alumacraft bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 95–125°, suggesting a wider or tapered front deck. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a moderate-to-wide connected arrangement, or separated sections for obstructed areas. A wider arrangement may suit broad front decks, while separated sections can help work around bow-mounted equipment.

Alweld Duck Boats

Representative Alweld bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 95–125°, suggesting a broad or modified-V bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a moderate-to-wide connected layout, with a straighter arrangement worth evaluating on flatter fronts. On flatter front profiles, compare the straight and wide configurations in addition to moderate-angle layouts.

Lund Duck Boats

Representative Lund bow styles have an estimated included bow angle of approximately 80–105°, suggesting a more pointed bow. The three independently configurable 10-inch sections of the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar allow owners to evaluate a tighter connected layout, comparing the 90° and 100° configuration footprints. A pointed bow may favor a tighter configuration, but mounting support and depth clearance remain decisive.

Phowler Boat Company | Pintail Duck Boats

Phowler Boat Company, later acquired by Pintail Duck Boats, LLC, produced purpose-built aluminum duck hunting boats with model-dependent tapered, angled, and relatively flat bow profiles. A reliable manufacturer-wide bow-angle estimate is not available, so no numerical angle is assigned here. For a pointed or tapered model, the DuraNav Duck Boat Light Bar’s three adjustable 10-inch sections may be arranged in a connected angled layout; for a flatter or obstructed bow, a wider or separated configuration may be more suitable. Compare your boat’s measured bow contour and mounting space with the illustrated DuraNav configurations before choosing a layout.

Plug-and-Play Wiring and Installation

The DuraNav uses a plug-and-play wiring system to simplify installation. Follow the DuraNav installation and user guide for connector and mounting instructions. Use the Short Kit vs. Long Kit comparison to plan your wiring length.

Where consistent with connector instructions, dielectric grease can help protect electrical connections against moisture and corrosion. Route and secure wires away from sharp edges, abrasion, and moving components. Driving lights do not replace legally required navigation lights.
