I bought these bow lights for my 1981 C&C 34 last fall: https://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?name=whitecap-led-side-lights-flush-mount&path=-1|65136|2312550|2312557&id=2650416 They are a drop in replacement fixture for the original in-hull bow running lights on my boat but sealed with LEDs. I

Shawn, You can get LED teardrop bow lights from marinebeam.com.  We replaced the bow lights on Glenn Gambels C&C 36 with a pair. I am always impressed with the intensity of them. I replaced my pulpit mounted lights and teaming/deck with Marine Beam lights.  I haven't replaced the masthead tr

Another way around it is using 3M reflective tape – I used a pretty blue for the cove stripe on my 39, and 1” Red for a boot stripe, and they really jump out an night, but you wouldn’t know they were reflective in the day. Bill Coleman From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.co

I also replaced my running lights with LEDs (direct replacement of baton-style bulbs). Although my bow lights have red and green plastic lenses, the replacement bulbs are also red and green. There is no mistaking my bow lights when I’m night sailing – they are bright. From: CnC-List On

Hi Don, Some new bulb holders came with the boat, I can ask the previous owner if he knows. They don't appear to be marine grade though, so I don't know how they will hold up. If the fixtures don't pass the leak test, I will look at going with the marinebeam LED units. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri..

Agreed.  Whether it be replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs in the taillights of your car or the navigation lights on your boat, you need to put a red bulb behind a red lens, a green bulb behind a green lens, and a yellow bulb behind yellow turn signal lenses.Lenses filter all colors except th

Thanks Shawn,  No need to go after the previous owner.  You got answers from Ken and Nathan that had two different sources of slightly different hull running lights.  I will be out at the boat and measure to see which fits most closely.  Hopefully it will be the one at Defender so I can pick th

My white cove stripe tape (dark blue hull) needs to be renewed as it is looking a bit ratty. I think the idea of using white reflective tape to replace it is brilliant! (pun intended) Ken H. On Wed, 5 Feb 2020 at 10:18, Bill Coleman via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Another way ar
