ring fry Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 I saw these on another forum (I know) and had to get them. These pictures do not give them justice but they are bad arse! front deck front rod box and storage back storage Two blue strips on the front and the back deck. All storage, rod lockers and battery area are done in white. No problem finding my boat at an early launch or late load up. Quote
Hot Rod Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Awesome, that is "trick". 8-) I had wanted to put a similar lighting system in my Strat but figured I'd have to get something "automotive" and adapt it to the boat. Now I know where to find it. Thanks for the link! Quote
Hot Rod Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Checked it out, ordered it, will post pics when its installed! Got the front/rear lighting set in green to match and the package for all the lockers! Sorry Bait Monkey. You'll have to wait until next time to get my cash since I just chucked what I had into my "Basshole-in-the-water- Boat" ;D Quote
Ellesar Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 The livewell ones are nice too, also used some with mercury switches for my engine compartment. Can't beat bluewater for led's! Quote
senko_77 Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Those are tight. I'm definitely going to be ordering these for my new rig 8-) Thanks for sharing Ring Fry ;D Quote
nrgeek Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Ive been restoring a 87 Hydra SPort for about a year, I could never find the exact lights I wanted ( LED ) so I made my own, they are really very simple to make, the blue water ones are pretty good , I just wanted something different Quote
Super User cart7t Posted August 28, 2009 Super User Posted August 28, 2009 Very "Blingy" ring. 8-) I'm still pondering my lights. I stuck some on already and don't like the ones on the decks. Still thinking this one over. Quote
Ellesar Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Bluewaters LED's are easy to install most places. I installed a one in my trolling motor tray and in the passenger side rod holder. I've seen lots of really cool looking things done wiht these lights. Quote
Hot Rod Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 I've noticed at the Blue Water LED site that a lot of the deck lights are mounted right next to the LCD at the bow. I would think it would make it more difficult to view the LCD at night. Anyone have any experience with LEDs close to the LCD? Quote

Anyone have any experience with LEDs close to the LCD? Its not an issue with my Lowrance. I can adjust the brightness so that its easily readable. But, I've never had to do that. The LED's don't create enough glare to washout the display. Quote
Sfritr Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 For these LED packages that are available, are they wired directly to the cranking battery or are you using a seperate battery like a mower or motorcycle etc.? I am looking into the trailer package from Bluewater. They look pretty cool Quote
Ellesar Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Mine use the cranking battery. They pull very little juice from the battery. Mine are all hooked up through the accessory switches on the console and the courtesy light switch which controlled the factory compartment lighting. Quote
I Love BassResource Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Cool, I'd feel like a jedi master whilest flipping my jigs... Quote
