An improved running light fixture that includes a user aimable flood light attached to the convention running like support shaft and plug. The flood light is provided with strobe mechanism for providing a strobe effect that may be used by the boater to attract the attention of other boaters who could then come to provide assistance.

1. A boat running light fixture comprising:a high intensity driving flood/strobe light assembly; a support post with a stem support C-clamp; a multi-directional pivot joint; and two spring loaded, power supply connecting clips that are each connectable to one terminal of a marine battery and in electrical connection with the high intensity driving flood/strobe light assembly; the support post being pivotally attached at a top end thereof to the high intensity driving flood/strobe light assembly with the multi-directional pivot joint; the high intensity driving flood/strobe light assembly being supplied with power through the two spring loaded, power supply connecting clips and including a three position switch, a flood lamp assembly and a strobe control circuit including a strobe lamp power output, a power input and a variable output strobe intensity control mechanism; the three-position switch including a switch power input wired in connection with the two spring loaded, power supply connecting clips such that: when the three-position switch is in an "off" position, an open circuit exists between the switch power input and both the flood lamp assembly and the power input of the strobe control circuit; when the three-position switch is in a "flood lamp on" position, a closed circuit exists between the switch power input and the flood lamp assembly causing it to continuously illuminate and an open circuit exists between the switch power input and the power input of the strobe control circuit; and when the three-position switch is in a "strobe lamp on" position, an open circuit exists between the switch power input and the flood lamp assembly and a closed circuit exists between the switch power input and the power input of the strobe control circuit causing the strobe control circuit to cause the strobe lamp power output to intermittently apply strobe power to the flood lamp assembly at a rate determined by the position of the variable output strobe intensity control mechanism.
