thanks everyone for the input....i guess because it is such a small lake that i ever go fishing on, i never thought of the other issues from major boating areas and what not. so my question is, can i still use them....if i move them more port and starboard than bow mounted? basically so most of...

they are just the typical LED strip lighting that you can grab from amazon for $7 a roll (30ft) i believe. i also helped stick them to the boat with clear silicon and it gives extra protection to them too. no problem at all being water proof. i ran a wire up over the bow of the boat and tapped...

well i can certainly say they were brighter than i even thought they would be....they actually illuminate the first foot or two of water in front of my boat....didnt want that but hey its okay with me...i think you'll be okay if you do them....i am thinking of doing something of this nature to...

thanks, inexpensive and easy to do. hardest part was coming across a decent metal drill bit and then drilling the holes....everything else was easy to do

so i had some strip LED lighting laying around, and figured i wanted to upgrade my one dinky little marker light for the front of the boat....here is what i came up with..... works pretty **** well too!

here is what i did, let me know if you need details

i installed them under the little lip of each bench seat running port to starboard. it should illuminate the floor/lower area of my boat. they face downwards so they shouldnt be too bright on the eyes, i have yet to test them in the dark becuase i installed them earlier this week, then had to...

Thanks. Hopefully it's well worth it once the cold weather is outta here and I can get her in the lake

hey guys, so here is my 3 days worth of work, its just about 95% finished. just a few pieces of trim and aesthetic things and it'll be complete. any questions ill be glad to answer. i basically hooked up a 12V battery to supply: 1. x2 charging ports 2. 6 switch with fuse box 3. marine radio...

ok that sounds pretty good. either match the pig tail gauge already installed on the rocker panel or go a gauge or two larger than that? is that an option as well?

ok so im running a fresh new electrical system in my 14' jon boat. i know each electrical component has its own gauge needed i.e. 14 - 22, what ever it may be. my question is, if i am running all my components from 12v battery to rocker panel switch board with built in fuses, all the components...

thanks for the response. i actually have a couple of those but a plastic version. those i use for carrying gear between the boat and if i ever go anywhere else and need my fishing tackle and what not. what i am looking for is something for storage on the actual trailer that is larger than those...

yeah no kiddin, 6 inches of snow yesterday, rain/ice through the night, 49F and sunny now. WTF is mother nature doing to us!?!?! as for my electrical system, i have my plans drawn up, JPB helped me with what exactly i think i need. wont start the project until march/april b/c of the weather, i...

heres an updated response what i used - 1 - 2x4 8ft long cut in half 4 - 3/16th inch flat iron 4 - "square" U bolts 3/16ths 4 - 7/16ths bolts Outdoor carpet Can of adhesive Metal primer Color of choice for spray paint

hey guys, anyone have any variation of these boxes? please post a pic if you do and what should i know about mounting or buying? i know metal is heavier but most rugged, i want it to be water tight, to store extra supplies and what not. thanks in advance.

i did this almost exactly the same way. inexpensive, easy, look great. ill have pictures to come, but i did not weld mine, i used large U bolts and drilled through the steel flat bar and mounted them to the trailer, i used the 2x4 like he did and covered it in marine carpet like i did my...

here is my trailer before my DIY guide ons. let me know if you want details about my guide ons. very simple and inexpensive. ill had pics of the guide ons a little later
