Wow...talk about the best of both worlds. How did you manage to get all that wire through the coach roof??

I kept the bow light, stern light and foreward white light (just below the spreaders) on another switch to use when under power. To avoid depleating the battery, I have a portable anchor light I run up the jib hallyard/downhaul. I have used this setup on several boats in the past and feel that the masthead tricolor is hard to mistake for a powerboat light when under sail after dark. We need all the help we can get when under sail at night here in Texas with the usual heards of ignorant rednecks out there in power boats. Whitebeard M17 #14, Griselda

I'm putting in a masthead light and wondered what would be the appropriate height. I'm thinking about half way between the top and the spreader. Does is really matter?? Joe Seafrog M17
