The marine beam option is what I went with. The boat came with more than a dozen tube fixtures (most of which were double tubes) and at ~$30 a tube it wasn't cheap. For the most part they are plug and play though the directions do suggest bypassing the ballast/starter circuit. I didn't bypass and haven't had any trouble. I will strongly suggest the warm white varient and advise that the light still has a bit of the LED harshness, not the inviting glow of an incandescent.

Is it simply 'plug & play', i.e., old tube out, new LED tube into the existing fixture?? Thanks!! Pete W.
