Anyone installed lights like this or something similar? I am out a lot after dark and there have been a few times where lights would have been nice.

Around here in Pennsylvania, I believe it is illegal to run docking lights while underway.

they are only legal as you pull up to the dock

not to be used underway at all.

coast guard laws are simply the US adoption of international maritime law.

On my old duckboat I ran a 12in lightbar for pre daytime operations, it worked really well and I could take it off when not in use. It is against coast guard regs, but as long as you are nice about it around here you wont have a problem. I know lots of other hunters and fisherman who run them.

Did you ever install the docking lights? I'm about to install mine, curious if there are any words of caution?
