need some advice on underwater lights from someone who has them on their boat

[hans jensen]

UPS just delivered my Bennett trim tabs (Happy Birthday to me!)

Now that I have my tabs I was thinking about my next toy, underwater lights for the boat. I was wondering if anyone out there has a set that they liked OR don't like. The prices online range from ~$100 to over $2500 (ridiculous). I thinking $200-$300 worth of lighting will be sufficient but maybe lights in that $ range just don't provide enough light. Talking to people at West Marine is usless! I need some advice from someone that actually has a set of lights.

Thanks for any feedback!

There are lots of different styles and configurations on the market. I used one of these on the back of my 19' Sea Hunt and it worked great for what I used it for.

Call BOE Marine...they can install them for you if you need someone to install. They sell several brands.
