I like the idea of being able to select red or white. right now I just hang a
battery-powered camping lantern from the underside of the bimini but I’m
thinking of something that’s permanently mounted.

I had dinner on a friend's very nice boat on Friday. He had rigged a small
light on the bottom of the boom which lit up the cockpit very nicely.

Earlier this year I changed out my old perko combo steaming/foredeck light
for a marinebeam combo. The marinebeam LED is awesome, the old light really
didn’t illuminate the foredeck at all (it was 39 years old) and the new light
is so bright it throws shadows. the only problem I have is the new light is so
well focused that it doesn’t light the back half of the boat at all so now I’m
trying to decide between spreader lights or a small LED fixture to light the
floor of the cockpit. I don’t won’t anything too bright so I’m almost convinced
that I will install a small dimmable LED fixture in the cockpit to light the
floor.

Ditto. With foredeck light I don't see need for spreader lights.

I use a Forespar, combination bow light/deck light. The bow light for
motoring at night, and the deck light taking the place of actual spreader
lights. I they're not LED, but I rarely use either of them when not motoring
or powered up in a moorage.

This has been bothering me all summer, there are wires hanging out of my
mast just under the spreaders (first set) it's obvious that someone has removed
the original spreader lights. I've been looking online at the multitude of LED
spreader lights available, and am wondering just how useful they are,
especially when they are so incredibly bright. What do you have? Do you use
them? Are they only used when at the slip? Would a spotlight or two be more
useful up there? I think I saw a red/white combo light somewhere, would that be
a better choice?
Thanks
