Hardcoat anodized aluminum, powder coated white, 21.45 inches wide. Built for cruisers and trawlers, not high-speed offshore hulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Seaview LTB-SF2 is the accessory that turns a single camera mount into a full electronics platform. It's a light bar that sits on top of your Seaview thermal camera mount, giving you clean, elevated real estate for the gear that usually ends up crammed onto the hardtop. Navigation lights, an all-round anchor light, a searchlight, a small satellite TV dome. All of it goes up high, out of the way, and clear of the camera below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the idea. A good thermal night-vision camera wants an unobstructed view. Put nav lights or a searchlight too close and you either block the camera's pan-and-tilt sweep or you wash out the picture with your own glare. The LTB-SF2 fixes that by lifting those accessories onto a bar that clears the camera dome, so everything has its own space and nothing fights for the same square foot of hardtop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's built the way Seaview builds everything. Aluminum, hardcoat anodized, then powder coated white. That two-step finish matters out on the water. Salt air eats cheap brackets, and a bar living at the highest, wettest point on the boat takes the worst of it. The anodizing under the powder coat gives you a second line of defense if the top layer ever gets nicked, so you're not watching corrosion creep out from a scratch after one season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitment is specific, so read this part twice. The LTB-SF2 works with Seaview M2-series modular mounts only, and it requires an LTB top plate to attach. You pick the top that matches your mount. If you already run a Seaview camera mount ending in M2, this drops right in. If you don't, you'll want to sort the mount and top first, then add the bar. The M2 designation is the thing to check. It's part of the mount's model, and it's what tells you this bar and its top plate will line up with the pattern you already have on the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize-wise it's 21.45 inches wide and 38.2 inches tall, so it's a real structure, not a little tab. That width is what gives you room to spread accessories out. It'll clear a 20-inch satellite dome or anything smaller. A 24-inch dome is too big, so if you're running a large satdome, this isn't the bar for that setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne honest limitation. This isn't for fast, ocean-going boats. Anything up high adds weight and sway right where you feel it most, and pounding across a chop at speed puts loads on a tall bar it isn't meant to take. On a cruiser, a trawler, an express or a sailboat running at sensible speeds, it's right at home. On a center console built to run offshore at 50 knots, this taller bar just isn't the right tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWiring is straightforward if you plan it. Run your light and accessory leads down through the mount and into the console the same way you'd route the camera cable. Use butyl tape and a quality marine sealant at any deck penetration, and give yourself a service loop so you can pull the bar later without fighting the harness. Heat-shrink and dielectric grease on the top-side connectors will save you a headache a couple seasons down the road, because that's exactly where water likes to find its way in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo who's this for? Anyone running a Seaview M2 thermal camera mount who wants to add lighting or an antenna without drilling more holes in the hardtop or cluttering the view around the camera. It's a clean, corrosion-tough way to build up instead of out. Pick the matching LTB top, bolt it on, wire it in, and you've got one tidy platform doing the work of three brackets. Think of it as future-proofing the helm, too. Add the lights you need now, and the bar's still got room for the antenna or searchlight you'll want next season, no new holes required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction, hardcoat anodized and powder coated white for salt-air corrosion protection at the highest point on the boat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21.45 in wide by 38.2 in tall, wide enough to spread nav lights, a searchlight, and an antenna without crowding the camera\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits Seaview M2-series modular camera mounts only, requires a matching LTB top plate to attach\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHolds searchlights, navigation lights, an all-round anchor light, and a small satellite TV antenna on one elevated bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClears a 20 in satellite dome or smaller, keeps the mounted camera's pan-and-tilt view unobstructed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElevates accessories above the thermal camera so lights don't block the sweep or wash out the night picture\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt for cruisers, trawlers, express boats, and sailboats at sensible speeds, not for high-speed offshore hulls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Seaview reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat does the Seaview LTB-SF2 light bar do?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt mounts on top of your Seaview thermal camera mount and gives you an elevated bar to add navigation lights, a searchlight, an anchor light, or a small satellite antenna, all clear of the camera below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhich mounts does it fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt works with Seaview M2-series modular mounts only, and it needs a matching LTB top plate to attach.
