This would be a 360* white light, with recharge batteries,
and small solar pick up someplace..

There are suppliers of high quality lights for nav aids and barges if
you don't mind the price. A quick google gives this for instance:

We use garden lights on our stanchions for courtesy lighting but they
are not bright enough to be anchor lights.

Why? I assume you already have an anchor light and a battery... why not
just add a solar battery charger and not buy all the extra stuff. if you
are leaving your boat alone you will want a bilge pump etc powered as well.
