FL-PATHFINDER Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hello all, im looking to get some ideas on mounting some led lights on the boat mainly for night fishing, to see where your walking and even rigging up a bait. I'm looking to see if any of yall have some ideas or share what you did on yours... The hull is an year 2000 2200v Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulfcoast Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 I added 6 around the console and I have more that I have not installed yet. I bought them online at Oznium https://www.oznium.com/marine-led-floodlight Really easy install. Just run you wire, drill a hole and put the light in it with a little silicon. They come in several colors. Here is a pic of the ones I installed on the console. I also had a new burn bar built that I can stand on to sight cast and mounted a combo LED spot/flood for when I am running at night. Beats the heck out of holding a spotlight in your hand the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEM Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 If you have stereo speakers, look at the possibility of adding LED speaker rings. You can wire them through your courtesy light switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCTribute Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Where did you get the spot/flood light and mount? Not seeing that particular light on the link you provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulfcoast Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 I had a phlashlight http://www.plashlights.com/ on my last boat that I was really happy with but this one actually came from Ebay. I bought a pair and put one on my boat and one on my ATV. Its been on my boat since March 2014 without issue. http://www.ebay.com/itm/OPT7-Pair-Off-Road-LED-LIGHT-Bar-8-36w-Spot-Flood-Work-Truck-SUV-ATV-Boat-Lamp-/111225921485?hash=item19e594dfcd:g:4s8AAOSwHnFVihHd&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Gulf coast, I am looking to have the same type of bar made for my 1806. Can you take a picture of the backing plates on the inside of the console? I'd like to give these pictures to my aluminum guy. Thanks in advance. PS - i see youre from TX. Did you get the idea from Simmons Custom Boats? They are the only manufacturer I've seen that has that style bar. I think its a great idea.

Ghostman Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Light bulb went off in my noggin one day when in the bike section of wallyworld. picked up a couple packages of these: http://www.amazon.com/Schwinn-SW77554-4-Snake-Lights-Black/dp/B00JL4HCHA and placed them on the CC and leaning post grab rails. Well what do ya know but it worked great. I have since purchased a few more sets of varying sizes and quality (and waterproof) and could not be happier. I use red the most as it doesn't impact my night vision. Yes I know its cheap solution but it's simple and works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gulfcoast Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 The burn bar is actually just through bolted with big washers but no backing plate. Blue Streak did the fab work. They build one similar to this for Majeks. I had not seen the SCB ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
