Background:
We will be leaving on the Great Loop this Fall.
Admiral has seen underwater lights on lots of boats but there aren't too many GB's in the Great Lakes to view.
A happy admiral makes for a good trip....
Clearly this option is not common on a trawler although many express cruisers and other types of vessels have added them over the past few years.
Questions:
But, what will we be doing to our three years down the road resale value? Will this make the boat undesirable to a trawler buyer?
What does one need to spend on the LED lights? There are some very expensive ones out there...are they worth the extra $$$?
Is there a brand someone can recommend that is a reliable, functional, middle of the road price?
I expect this will create a spirited debate!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
