THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE WANTED!

Great Idea!! But $300!!!!!!!!!!!:head:

bsteckel 11-28-2009 04:07 PM

MJ .. i agree .. that is about 3x too much... if i bought one of those lights, my wife would give me one of these :nut:

even $100 is pushing the limit of reason.

that said .. i sure wish i would have thought of it.

I bet you could rig up one of those pretty cheap. Pretty cool!

One of my customers had three "OceanLED" lights installed in the transom of his 34 Cruiser. They guy who installed them cut him a deal for $1700 each for the lights plus labor, ended up around $8000 installed. The light retailed for $2700 each

I am working on it stay tune :)

bcmarinamanager 12-02-2009 01:43 AM

Oh my God I want one soo bad!!!! Because I use my boat soooo much at night....yeah right, but maybe that would give me much more incentive to!!!!.....Dear Santa, for Christmas I want a Red Rider B-B gun, a fire truck, and a screw in LED drain plug light. Thank you!!!

Blue_Runner 12-02-2009 08:54 AM

Dear Bcmarinamanager,

The elves are working feverishly to finish up your red rider bb gun. We have your fire truck (full size) on back order from Mack truck. It should deliver on the night of christmas ever...just in time.

About this other request - your request for the screw-in LED drain plug light - quite frankly those things are too dam expesive for what they are so I hope you will be happy with an led flashlight inside a ziplock baggy with velcro attachments. Total savings going this route comes to around $295, which in this economy makes much more sense.

Sincerely,
Santa
:haha:

Pipe_Dream 12-02-2009 11:14 AM

What a cool idea!

And it's on sale until Christmas: $269.

But I'm still not going to pull the trigger on it.

spareparts 12-02-2009 05:10 PM

I saw one guy who had a 45 Meridian. he rigged up several fihing lights to attach to the swim platform supports for under water lights, he ran teh cords around the edge of the platform and pluged tehm into anoutlet. I asked him how they stayed on while under way, he told me it was for just when it was at teh dock, he removed them before moving the boat. Go figure, guy spends over half a mil on a motor yacht, then spends $50 for lights at teh dock so he can look cool. BTW, his boat was four boats dwon from the guy who spent $8000 on his under water lights.

Seacrets 12-05-2009 12:11 PM

Let's buy one and share it. When you guys up north winterize your rigs, ship the light to us guys in the south and come spring, we'll ship it back. Problem solved.

reelapeelin 12-05-2009 02:03 PM

Wow...I could see in the water when I'm pissin' off the swim platform at night...:sun:

the daydreamer 12-06-2009 10:29 AM

Wow, I had not clicked onto this thread until today for some reason. As I read you post I started laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes and had to hold it back because I'm in my office.

Blue_Runner 01-04-2010 04:06 PM

Sweet...glad I could make somebody laugh SR! I got a chuckle myself writing it. :hi:

csvencer 01-05-2010 07:28 AM

Just put a pair of green double square LED's on my neighbors boat. They look SAWEET and were cheaper than anything else. Take a look...

I can't keep trailer lights working let lone under water lights!!

Blue_Runner 01-05-2010 02:28 PM

Ain't that the truth! I'd have to fix the 900 other things wrong with my boat before I'd be able to get around to underwater lights.

My trailer lights still work though....looking for wood to knock on.

NOTHING ELSE MATTERS 01-05-2010 10:59 PM

I've used Chris's lights on a previous boat and i can say i was very happy with them, i had the first ones out. I will be installing them on the V20 and on my other boat soon.

RABBITFISH 01-06-2010 10:38 AM

LED Lights
 
I too have been dreaming of getting some of those lights from Chris, can you post some pics and let us know how you like them after you get them installed.
I am really interested in how they would look on the V20

Thanks....

that is.........AWSOME!!!!!!!!!
Do they produce as much light underwater??

csvencer 01-07-2010 12:33 PM

Really depends on the clarity of your water. From the muddy river/creek water out the Bay Bridge Tunnel there is a HUGE difference in the light penetration.

What he said.
I use the lights for squid fishing and had no complains. Don't forget, these lights are the first ones and the smallest he had, the new double ones are double the light which they have to be really good. I will be getting 3 doubles for my Grady and 2 doubles for the V.

Stillrunning 01-11-2010 11:16 AM

You added reverse lights to your boat?
