They are Here

[msbhammer]

My LED bow lights arrived. Looking pretty sharp. They arrived quick as well from Australia.
66 bucks that encluded shipping as well.

Do they go on the opposite sides since they are from Australia?

LOL

I thought you ordered red and green,
those look like white.

 

[msbhammer]

LED baby. no lense. Not the best pic. But I had t try.  ;D

 

[msbhammer]

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 ??

 

[boatnluvr]

Hammer, how long did it take to get them?

 

[parishht]

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.

It's OK if the pulpit blocks the lights. They should only be seen from one side of the boat anyhow.

Looking good Hammer

 

[msbhammer]

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.

 

[Airslot]

Just let me know when we are getting our pulpits ;D

 

[msbhammer]

Will do AIR. I see it coming soon.  
Never did find out if Warner got that piece of starboard or not ?

 

[Airslot]

In one of the pics you posted they actually had the end rounded. Will they do that as well?

 

[msbhammer]

Yes, from speaking to te guy AIR, he can do anything you want, for an extra fee of course.

 

[Airslot]

Might be worth finding out what that fee might be ;D

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

Bow lights, as you seee here they run side to side to see front and rear

Not the end of the world, just going to have to put them under the windshield like me,

 

[msbhammer]

Yes, it is the end of the world :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(.

Mount em in the cabin for mood lighting.

 

[msbhammer]

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. ??? ???
