I wired in this waterproof switch mounted to the trailer to turn on in launch parking lot. Illegal in Vermont to run accent lights over the road. The switch solved this issue. I used two Lighting kits to do mine. One only did half my trailer.
I added Vessel View 5 years ago and it's been a nice accessory for my 200 Mercury. Track rpm's and fuel burn on the app on my phone. I log all my maint. I do. It tells you by hours when that maint. is due. Blue tooth connectivity to phone. When I am away from the boat I can pull up my phone app and check fuel left in in tank and hours on engine. When I pull a tube for the kids I just use the App tracking rpm and mph. A great multi-use tool!
We had 4-5 nice fish. Two year classes of fish. One small one. Had a lot of video clips to go thru and may have missed a few. Photos captured some of the nicer fish! Released all fish!
Thanks for asking!
Truthfully it's not a gimmick. I get it. We launch in the dark when we travel to Lake Ontario 3x a year from Vermont. The light is very useful when getting the boat ready ie. putting the antenna up / taking off the windshield cover / taking the straps off the back of the boat. Just as the interior lights are of the same value before launching setting up the inside of the boat. LED trailer lights never have to be unplugged and basically maint. free! Same with these trailer specific lights by T-H marine.. I used two kits to fill all the space in under the trailer. I added a switch to turn it off over the road due to it's illegal to run accent lights in Vermont.
Labor day week fishing Stagers here is a tip that will help people fishing Deep with Divers! Using the 124mm super sized Dreamweaver Diver will easily get to 95-105 ft which was super successful this past September for us landing 18 salmon each day we fished and a crazy amount of bites and lost fish over the two day's we fished. Tracking them with Smart Troll really helped our cause as well. In the past we never had any idea where are divers were running and they were standard size. Yielding very few bites this time of year as they weren't deep enough. We ran 4 riggers as well.
Here is a link to a video I found on this Diver:
This diver added many fish to our spread on Stagers Labor Day week.

Just finished a 3 day project about 8 hours of wiring and rigging with Black Oak LED accent lights. Nice for Ontario setting up in the parking lot and out on the water. Plus the Shoot-Out.
