I know I can get a bigger charger but first I want to cut down the amp draw. Another reason those ten and twenty watt halogen bulbs aren't cheap and don't last long.

These lights on eBay are 7.99 for two, that's cheaper then halogen lights at a homedepot.

I got my 130 lumen led bulbs in and the might work as a ten watt but not as a 20 watt. I think I will order the 270 lumen bulbs and see how good they are to replace a 20 watt halongen. Now these 130 will not fit in the small 10 watt halogen frame, there to long so I think I will use them in my master water closet.

I was watching the TV show prison break and noticed a yacht I thought looked really familiar. However coming back to this thread I see some differences mostly in the windows and ports... what you all think?

Someone makes a Xenon G4 direct replacement bulb that is the same exact physical size as a normal G4......

Another thought is to add some 120 volt fixtures and lights where are going to be more efficient than DC

Absolutely fantastic! So I'm curious... once she's done do you plan to live aboard, go cruising, sell her.... or?

Mike, saw you underway over the weekend. We took our tender to the 'new' Cedar Creek Marina for lunch at Fish Tales and were going to drop by to see if you were home, but then, while we were eating, saw you leaving the creek. Passed by on our way back to our Lagardo anchorage. Very nice!

Not a bad start at all! Any of them single???

All of them,

I fill my boat every weekend with girls some coming back and others for the first time.

I bet you think how does he do that???? It sucks to have a nice boat and watch all the other guys get the girls. So you go to meetup and start a singles/boating group. After you get going you make it privet so you can pick who you let in. I have six girls for every one guy. I started (Lost at Sea) in 2009 and this year I just started (Music On The Water Nashville) and (Wine & Dinner On a Yacht) It works. I go out often and I need a lot of people to fill it up two days each weekend. Forget to tell you you can even charge if you want to. I will charge in the Music On The Water about $15 a person most of the time.
