Thanks, Larry! I wonder if the company that offers the L.E.D. lights available through Cabelas also offers L.E.D. bulbs that would fit the standard lights? The assemblies "appear" identical in every other way and I already have a set of the standard lights. --Craig ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry E Yake To: chonshell@ia4u.net ; montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com Sent: Saturday, March 26, 2005 6:52 PM Subject: L.E.D. "Retrofit" Craig, You can get portable LED navigation lights through Cabelas. The come on a C clamp mounting bracket, use 4 AA batteries, last up to 100 hours on a set of batteries, and cost $22 each. I found them in their catalog, but I'm sure they would be on the web site, too. www.cabelas.com Larry On Sat, 26 Mar 2005 18:17:22 -0500 "Craig F.

These AA-battery powered dinghy nav lights with mounting bracket options are good backups . . . But the standard bulbs go through batteries quickly.
