They are Here
My LED bow lights arrived. Looking pretty sharp. They arrived quick as well from Australia.
66 bucks that encluded shipping as well. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...r/DSC02510.jpg |
Re: They are Here
Do they go on the opposite sides since they are from Australia?

Re: They are Here
Gotta decide now, that starborad for the pulpit is 1 1/2 thick. Will the size of te pulpit block the lights??? or should I have a 1 1/2 spacer made for each bow light to sit on. Or mount the lights to the pulpit, but the chain could hit the lights ??
|
Re: They are Here
Hammer, how long did it take to get them?
|
Re: They are Here
I don't think you have to worry about lifting the lights.
I belive they just have to be visible from a distance so that green and red can be determined for which side an oncoming vessel is to pass. Check out this link: http://www.boat-ed.com/de/course/p3-...tionlights.htm |
Re: They are Here
It's OK if the pulpit blocks the lights. They should only be seen from one side of the boat anyhow.
Looking good Hammer :) |
Re: They are Here
Thanks for the info guys. *;)
Took only 10 days I believe. Was held up due to the Easter weekend. Thats ok though, I wont be installing them till I get me some starboard. Thats next. well after I get the other tilit trim motor next weekend in Philly. |
Re: They are Here
Just let me know when we are getting our pulpits ;D
|
Re: They are Here
Will do AIR. I see it coming soon. *;)
Never did find out if Warner got that piece of starboard or not ? |
Re: They are Here
In one of the pics you posted they actually had the end rounded. Will they do that as well?
|
Re: They are Here
Yes, from speaking to te guy AIR, he can do anything you want, for an extra fee of course.
|
Re: They are Here
Might be worth finding out what that fee might be ;D
|
Re: They are Here
I hate to say it but they look like side lights??
Side lights have a lens that goes from front to back like them, so you can see them from front and side of boat. Bow lights lens go front to side so you can see front and side while driving. Side lights here, as you can see you see from front or side light runs front to back http://www.iboats.com/Perko_Vertical...-view_id.39382 Bow lights, as you seee here they run side to side to see front and rear http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PERKO...01628022QQrdZ1 |
Re: They are Here
Not the end of the world, just going to have to put them under the windshield like me,
|
Re: They are Here
Yes, it is the end of the world :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(.
I thought these were close to what REEL had on his V ??? |

Re: They are Here
The more I look at these lights, the more pissed I get.
Didnt realize they were side light >:( >:( >:( >:( M.J. so how ya gonna wire yours ? You have access to where they be mounted at. What about getting to the otherside behind the helm to the fuse box. Cant just cut acroos te the bow because of the hatch. ??? ??? |

Nope...not like REEL'S...but whole time I's readin' thru this I's thinkin' what MJ said about mountin' 'em on the windshield bulkhead ... I think they'd be REELY COOL there 8) 8) ...tell ya what...have Lisa hold one of 'em in place under the windshield, post the pic and we'll vote on it ;) ...power of the board ;D ... Wire around (forward of it) the hatch opening...I've got several wires goin' around front of mine...just gotta hide/secure 'em ;) ...I think those lights gonna look GREAT up there ;D ... |
Re: They are Here
I would have to mount these on the sides correct. On the short side of the windshield. Port/starboard side.
Hoping I have access on the sides. I'll give it a shot I guess. Dont wanna eat 66 bucks on my stupidity. :-/ |
Re: They are Here
If Lisa is in the Hooters shirt, you guys may not be able to give a fair and reasonable vote on how her lights/ oops I meant my bow ligts work. :P

Re: They are Here
Reel, Like this:
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...r/DSC02516.jpg Or I guess more like this ? http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...r/DSC02515.jpg |
Re: They are Here
Yeah, Hammer...like the 2nd pic ...I like it 8) ... what's the dark square area there?...
|
Re: They are Here
Reel,
I believe that's the Wellcraft insignia... |

Steve, I can't tell...been lookin' REEL hard at it... ??? ... |
Re: They are Here
Its a factory Wellcraft decal made out of hard plastic.
Well, I guess I will try and see if I can install the lights there. Just hope I can get a wreck in there to tighten te bolt down. Could just screw it to the side, but would get loose I think. |
Re: They are Here

Lots a stuff on mine been screwed down since 1999...as long as it's not structural or bears LOTS of weight...heck, screw 'em...if they work lose later, you can always go back and thru-bolt 'em ;) ... |
Re: They are Here
Reel, MJ, Hammer and anybody that's got them lights: Is there any problem of reflection at night by the lights distracting or blinding you? I had already made up my mind to mount mine there but was worried it.
|
Re: They are Here
I am going to mount mine in the same place, as for wires I am going to go all the way around the cabin, use some zip ties to hold.
As for screwing them on, Just drill and screw with some caulking, Not 5200!! 5200 will glue there forever!! Just some light caulk will be fine. You might need to replace at some time? See you went and out bid me, Now I punish you, and gave you the wrong ones!! ;) ;D |
Re: They are Here
Don't forget to put the right color on the right side!!
Red on the right, Green on the left ::) |
Re: They are Here
LOl, I'll sell them to ya cheap. ;D
|
Re: They are Here

|
Re: They are Here

Re: They are Here

Re: They are Here
HOW ABOUT LED ANCHOR LT.THAT WILL REEEELY SAVE YOUR BATTERY POWER FOR WHEN YOU NEED IT.
|
Re: They are Here
When Parissht stopped by, he brought his homemade V20 flag with him. Looked pretty good. ;)
|
Re: They are Here
Remember we discussed putting the lights on either side of the pulpit,
just angle them out board. Oncoming vessels are who need to see them. HAMMER, it was a nice visit this afternoon, pictures just don't do justice to all the projects you are accomplishing. |
