Yikes, Lights on a Sailboat

Who would have thought the importance of light on a boat not to mention the cost yikes. Well let's see you need to have LED of course it pulls less power according to the latest research. How can you add light to the exterior of a boat without wiring duhhh.  There has to be light on the outside to guide us in case we are ever get caught off guard again watching the sunset while trying to find a marina.

Then there are the lights inside Moondance, the cabins and salon. That would be seven cabin and four salon lights.  Wow of course switch to LED and of course make sure the wiring is safe and good.  Then of course there is wiring to the pumps oh geeze who would have thought there would be three pumps on a 35' sailboat. Gotta make sure all that pump wiring is good too. I will say this is quite a good hospital, thorough for sure. No responsible boater would journey far without ensuring safety.

We will be safe on the water the next trip. John, the construction guy he is kept telling me, electric and water don't mix.

Moondance is on her way in a few short weeks she will be good as new and ready to head north.
Gotta post a few pics of some nice brass cabin lights of course. Perfect Moondance's teak wood will look great with these.

Oh my more electric gotta take care of installing a refrigerator and freezer.

Life Is Good, Sail On !!!!
