Q: Why is the lens clear and not colored?
A: An LED can produce pure color light. We use a pure red LED for the port light, and a pure green (cyan) LED for the starboard light, and a white LED for the stern section. Therefore a colored lens is not needed. Also, the LED itself has a built in lens for directing the light. Therefore an external fresnel lens is not needed.
