Has anyone installed any LED deck lights on a glass boat? Would like to add them, but don't want to drill to run wire. Pics of your setups would be nice!

Depending on the boat, you can mount them facing rearward from the front of the deck and run the wires under the bow panel without drilling holes. A bit of split loom or mesh loom will make the short exposed wires look neater.

I don't have a glass boat, and I do have a overhang around the top rail so I can tuck my wiring under the top rail completely out of sight. I also mounted the lights there so they don't shine in my eyes. Couple of pics of my Blue Water LED kit. I went with red led for safety lights and leave them on all night. I also installed white led for working lights. Added a pic of my counsel- led switches so I can see if I left anything on any time of the day/night. Makes it easier to find them at night too.

The 3 M sticky tape on the back of Blue Lites' lites is the stickiest ever. Had them inside my Jon boat forever working great and stuck to aluminum.
What do you do with the wires?Quote:

Hey Jeff,
you may need something like this.
16/2 AWG Marine Grade Wire Tinned Copper USA Made Boat Wiring
Use wire clips similar to the ones used for running transducer wire. Tuck it in a corner where the deck meets the side, or under the rail.
