Pool light bulb socket?

[DeanP66]

So, I'm helping a friend with her pool light which doesnt work. I got the fixture out onto the pool deck and to my surprise, when i opened up the seal to remove the light bulb, i noticed a really big socket. The one in my pool is smaller and matches what Leslie's sells at the store. They didnt have anything larger like my friend's bulb.

I thought the bulb sockets were standard size.

Looks like a mogul base bulb.

Thanks guys, it appears it's a moot point because the entire fixture seems to be dead. I found some type of bulb at OSH with that same socket and tried it but got nothing when I flipped the switch.
