I like just having the red light on at the chart table.that's the only cabin light expect for the LED lantern in the head.while underway on deck the read compass light, light from the chartplotter, engine control panel lights, running lights, bow light, stern light, 300,000 candela spotlight at the ready, LED flashlight.I find the high power spotlight very useful around here at times to return home safely and to find an anchorage and also to see along the shoreline while anchored

We get plenty of fog and rain here and a flashlight is usually the last tool I look for. I find that being night-blind is worse than straining to see through the dark. On overnights, I generally turn off all the instrument lights except the compass and have an occasional peek below to see precisely where I am. It's surprising how well one can see after the eyes adjust to the darkness. I install a lot of equipment and have never understood the notion of putting everything behind the wheel and spending helm time totally occupied by the magic of electrons. Just me:) Rich On Mar 13, 2014, at 15:09, Andrew Burton <[email protected]> wrote: Not on a rainy night when you're trying to find your way down a twisty narrow channel.
