I only use mine dockside at night when tidying the boat after a sail.
Cheers,

Dave,
I have not used my spreader lights while sailing(yet), but I have used them
many times for social activities mostly while docked at my marina but also
sometimes while at anchor socializing with a large group. That said, I
normally anchor over night limiting my light and noise pollution.

Hi,
My previous C&C had spreader lights and I used them before the advent of
cheap, reliable, LED headlamps.
My current boat has a deck light under the steaming light and I don't use
it.
One nice feature of ether deck or spreader is that you can light up the
boat in an emergency.
If you do repl

party.

One other thought to mention: if you’re sailing at night and want to confirm
that another boat sees you, you can light up the sails pretty effectively using
the deck light, as well.

Dave — I’ve got the LED combo deck/steaming light I replaced last winter; and
yes, I do occasionally use it to light the deck at night. More often when
sailing at night, I’ll use a red LED headlamp, though, to save night vision.

The purpose of spreader lights is to light up the deck at night, as when
doing things like reefing the main. I also use mine to light up the deck
when at the dock and taking aboard passengers or loading/unloading gear. My
"spreader" lights are Forespar lights that attach to the mast instead of

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.

James — I recently replaced my steering pedestal, and added a Navpod for my
helm instruments. I also ran power from my “Cabin Lights” breaker to the pod
through a one-amp fuse, and put a red and a white one of these on the curved
bottom of the pod, through an On-Off-On toggle switch in the pod:
fixture in the cockpit to light the
floor.

This summer I had the boat completely re-wired. That included installing a
combination Steaming light/deck light.
There are separate switches on the DC board for each light even though the
deck light is the bottom portion of the steaming light housing. Located
half way up the mast it throws a perf
