Here's a post on The Hull Truth that I found to be pretty interesting. The first post has pics of how this fellow made his own underwater lights from super bright LED's. Pretty cool.

That's so cool, It makes me want to make one. Too bad i got no boat to stick it to

as long as we don't sink it in the process, we can use mine
for a prototype platform.......

I use LED scuba lights when I walk, gigging flounder. They run all night on 4 C cells. A green lense might be better for distance and attracting fish. I made a green lite out of a 40 watt floresent bulb and a 12 volt inverter from a rv store. Put that in a clear plastic tube and it works well. Lot more lite than you get from a store bought one.

After looking at swim platform/transom lights at the local marine supply >$1000.00. I went to home depot and purchased the same lights for about $40.00 in their pond section and mounted on the top of the trim tabs. This is out of the water when planing. The lights are encased in plastic and I used stainless brackets/screws to mount. They have been installed for several months now with no problems.
