Rob,
The previous owner installed or inherited the boat with a wrong battery.  
Replace it with a good 12V deep cycle battery. There are many thoughts as to  
where you should purchase the battery. Check the archives, but many owners have  
had good experiences with the Walmart brand.
Before raising the mast, check the light again just to be on the safe side.  
:)
