Hi Dennis,
Try a different approach to the problem... pour
the Admiral another glass o' wine and reassure
her that she can do the dishes in the morning. :)
Oh my.
Cheers, Russ

Started a new project today. Ken's pics of his
really nice overhead down lights got me
thinking. The galley light in the 35-1 is tucked
under the deck so it doesn't provide much light
for the sink. Directly above the sink is a winch
access panel. Would it be possible to mount a
down light in the panel? Two questions
immediately popped up. First, can I get a wire
in there? Second, can I find a light that will
fit the shallow space? I've answered the first
question. After several attempts, I managed to
fish a messenger string into the space. A fish
tape wouldn't work. I worked a coat hanger from
the access between the headliner and cabin roof
down the curved corner of the cabin roof to pop
out under the forward part of the cockpit
coaming. I might have to pull a small wire like
AWG 16 but I'll be using an LED light so no
biggie. I've measured the space and it's only 1
inch deep because of some added deck
strengthening. If I can't find a 1 inch deep
LED down light I can always make a bezel trim to
add to the access panel. Anybody found a good
one? Needs to be 2 inch diameter or less. I
also need to determine how and where to put the
switch if there's not one on the fixture.
