Great idea for glowsticks in the cooler! Have had some success using fluorescent flagging tape tell-tales with UV flashlight blacklights for nighttime sailing.
Used oversized and temporarily attached with a small piece of duct tape. Illuminate with the battery powered handheld UV flashlight(s). Not all flagging tape colors will fluoresce so check before buying. Sourced at Home Depot for the tape, Amazon for the UV flashlight blacklight, or Google "fluorescent flagging tape" and "UV flashlight blacklight". We set a baseline for trim by illuminating the fluorescent tell-tales, and we then use feel, heel, and wind instruments to maintain course, occasionally re-checking the tell-tales for confirmation. -- Tim Rutherford S/V Chamamé (CHA-muh-may) 1981 C&C 36-1 KCB Davis Island Yacht Club Tampa, FL tim.rutherford.m...@gmail.com On Tue, Feb 28, 2023 at 2:46 PM Jeff Nelson via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > We solved the problem in a low tech way.
