fin-addict Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Today was the wrap up of the partial rewire. Everything back up and running. Including new nav lights, Marpac LED shark eyes, Hella LED anchor/stern light and two LED spreader lights. took 3 days, 12 hours in total. Picture of garbage was just today. While at it the old garmin gps black box was disconnected and removed as was the control box and wiring for the troll n tab motors on the trim tabs. They were frozen and drawing current. Next time on the hard the motors on the tabs will be removed and the brackets cut off. Happy with the job and the marine electrician was excellent and really knew his work. Sad to say however, my t top is excellent and rock solid but whoever wired the lights on it was a hack as was the wiring on the oem factory bow lights. Think they were rewired when the anchor light was installed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin-addict Posted September 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Can’t believe how much brighter the LEDS are. The anchor light is same style as old one but now LED and 6” taller so now can be seen over tower console cover which I always felt was a safety issue for on coming boats. Also picked up this bore light if needed to run own wires and check places I can’t see. Waterproof, can be used in water, brightness settings for lights and assorted attachments. Can also take pictures/videos and comes with SIM card to store pics/vids. Amazon for less than $50. Incl tax & ship. Will post pics when used. Had very positive reviews. Can even play doctor with it 😂🤦♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Nice upgrades. I have found the scope to be invaluable on my last couple of projects. Mine is an el cheapo that connects via Bluetooth for the image on my cell phone. I think that unit you have is much nicer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, was going to get the Bluetooth but opted for this as it is waterproof and stand alone unit. Did not want to play with a phone app. 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
