 Boat Lighting
I'm sure ppl have posted lighting threads, but I put some lights on the spare switch in my boat and they've turned out great. If you duck hunt these are well worth the effort. They are LED 12" strips. Cost me a total of about $12. Bought the lights on ebay and wired them up in about 2 hours. Pictures didnt turn out real great but you get the idea.

 Re: Boat Lighting
Here is a link to them. Bought them from our good friends to the east.
I put 6 in the boat all together I ran a bead of silicone down each one and they hold up great. Like I said just wired them into that spare switch.

 Re: Boat Lighting
I like the new LED light, put about 10 foot of this in my Hanko last year. http://www.sailorsams.com/mall/led-rope-lights.asp
