I would like to ask you guys -
where would I be able to buy the best brand of underwater Hull Lighting in South Africa?
I would like to have these fitted on the new Ski Vee I will have built.
We sometimes fish a group of Ski Boats at Cock Burn at night and it is only 15 to 20 meters deep there.

I am sure the bait fish will be attracked to these lights and get the CUDA we target there at night to come feed close to the boat

I have now for the better part of this afternoon communicated with Captains in the USA and Australia with regard to me wanting to install Underwater Lighting on my next Ski Vee 500 Sport.

I have explained the purpose of this idea to fish at night on shallow areas between 15 and 25 meters.

The majority on kind relies was that my boat being a very small boat - I should invest is a very good solid light.
I have been referred to the following BRONZE IN-CASED LIGHT -

"SEABLAZE X Underwater Light Bronze"
Since 2008 the SeaBlaze line of underwater lights has established the industry benchmark for performance, quality, and value. Introducing the new standard: SeaBlazeX. Completely surface mount, the SeaBlazeX housing is constructed of carefully formulated bronze alloy with a designed underwater service life of more than 50 years. The circuitry is completely self-contained and tested to rigorous military standards for EMI, transient voltages, temperature extremes, and mechanical shock and vibration. Exclusive thermal foldback technology ensures the light can operate above water indefinitely without damage. And with a lower profile and smaller footprint than most other lights, mounting options are no longer limited to wide flat transom areas.

When my new Yamaha 70HP - 4stroke was fitted I had TWO of the best Deep Cycle Batteries fitted that I could find.
I best quality inverter ="Is that what it is called" was installed to charge both batteries when on the go.

This serves me perfectly in that I would have the same done on the new Ski Vee that Grant from SEACAT will build me and power these BRONZE IN-CASED Underwater lights

Just as a matter of interest is it legal to fish with artificial light in South Africa? Short of being a licensed Chokka fishing boat?

There are a lot of brands our there regarding the underwater LED's, I was leaning towards the Seablaze 3 but they are super pricey and they are round so they have more a bean in stead of a spread.

Doing more research I stumbled about everyone was talking about lights by a dude of the name of Chris from coastal lights, his lights were placed way higher then any competitor and they were cheaper and much easier to explain.

I bought 2 dl lights in blue from him for my boat that I only use at Gamtoos, Chris was great and he also gave me an international discount.
