- 450 DA Sundancer running CAT 3126
I LOVED the Lumitech lights I had on my last boat.
That boat was lift kept, behind the house.
One failed after 5 years from water intrusion.
My 450DA comes out of the water next month for a bottom job & etc.
I WILL NOT COMPROMISE THE CORED TRANSOM - NO NON-FACTORY BELOW THE WATERLINE HOLES IN THIS BOAT !
Wondering . . . .
Any reason why I cannot mount 2 pairs of the Zambezi Z2 surface mount lights onto a piece of starboard, then mount the starboard to the trim tabs, secure the wires to the swim platform, then up through the transom ABOVE the water line?
This way when/if a Lumitech fails, it can easily be replaced, and I don't hole my transom.
Too much Rube Goldberg?
I'm in SW Florida and in the water all year long. Diver services the bottom monthly.
WHAT SAY YOU ?
BEST !
