Looks good Doug. Anxious to hear how they look. Any thoughts on bulb upgrades? Merry Christmas

I gotta have some too.....now if Andre would just get off this ass and finish the B31 lift in his fnacy new boathouse down the bayou from me I'd have a shipyard in my back yard to do them. I did hear that Andre' The Electrician has mastered 240 volts AC and how to reverse it.

It is indeed a great world...

JP,

I will get us upgraded when ever your ready. Just wanted to check into a few things first. 2 1/2" hole saw bit works great on cutting the hole for the lights with just a few swipes with sand paper by hand to smooth it up. Very good tight fit.

We can do this again in Feb. I'll post a underwater lights message like last time. If you want to play let me know.

DQ,

What do the lights come into the boat near on the inside? They look great from the outside!

Dug,

They are just inboard of the two main stringers and about 3" to 4" down from the top of the stringer to the center of the light. I did not want them sitting in the bottom of the bilge. Also the degree angle of the transom I wanted them up higher just a little, I will still have my 10" below the water
line.

R,
Doug

Doug, she looks great!

I'm meeting Doug from Aqua Lights Flordia today to pick up my lights. He made us a great deal at the Boat show. I plan putting one out the transom and 2 out the bottem for swordfishing. They will be on their own battery bank with independant switches.

Are they white or Green "Glow lights"?. Guessing they are just white being round. But hey light at night be it white or green attracts bait and fish. I use a green glow light now and love it. Nice work on the lights. Hope it's easy to replace a lamp. Dave K
Keep Fishing...
