Recessed docking lights?
 

Hey guys...I want to get rid of the big gawdy KC lights and bow rail on my uper deck. Does anyone know where I can find these recessed type docking light more reasonably?

They all seem to be very expensive. :o

Skools? Anyone? :-/

I don't think these are recessed:

SKOOL, those reset lights, I guess they get installed through the sides of your hull, correct. Not on top. right.

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

recessed means you have to make a hole in the hull to install

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

Hammer recessed...not reset. :P


Maco is right...cut holes. They would make great shark eyes... ;D

Would they work on a V-20. I went and looked at your gallery, thought you had them, but thats a future drawing for port holes you had.

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

another for you Hammer

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

Seems like asking for trouble, cutting holes in your bow. I would think on a V-20 you would have to be so close to the waterline with the holes that they would be constantly wet.

But I don't know much about this stuff.

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

I agree with randleman on the 20...with all that flair you may have to put em low. :o

Not so much on my 18, especially is they are installed and sealed correctly.

As much night fishing as I do running without is asking for ALOT more trouble IMO. ;)

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

Somebody should try it. Stinky, crank up that chain saw bud. ;D

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

Stinky...have ya considered a remote-control spotlight?...mounted on bow, opposite helm, it'll fire a beam where ya goin', plus into turns w/ controls...AND all the other things you can use a spotlight for ;) ...much more versatile than fixed bow-lights ... 8) ...

Not necessarily from Worst Marine, but this is the one I like...

Quick somebody buy my boat, but without the hardtop. :o :o :o :o :o :o

Figured I get a head start on Charlie. ;D

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

RAP, Ive thought about it man, but the whole reason Im doing this is to remove the ones I have and clear off the top deck. Trying to clean it up a bit ya know?

Gonna take off the bow rail too.

Ive got something in the works that I just thought about yesterday...pics to soon follow. ;)

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

I think you should build a custom aluminum radar arch for your boat and mount remote light on top of it.

Hey, do you have smileyface covers on your KC's?

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

Stinky Check your PM's ;) let me know thanks

By the way they fit a V20 i see one on Hwy 58 between Kinston and Maysville every beach trip. they look really good.

Re: Recessed docking lights?
 

You da man skools!
Im gonna keep an eye on that one. 8)

Re: Recessed docking lights?
