Looking for advice on a good source for some Red led rope light for use in the boat. I see some of you guys have this and wondering where to get some good stuff from?

Hey Guys!
This past week I tripped across this website. He has some pretty nice lights available and they are very economical. I had him make me some custom 24" long units with dual boards in the tube for my tractor and the total bill with shipping was $39US. I had a nice e-mail discussion with the gentleman that owns the site and he is very quick to respond and is very knowledgeable. I ordered and paid Thursday, he shipped them Friday and i will get them this week!

http://www.pcboard.ca/GarageSale/

I was thinking of having him make me some more custom length units in the spring to mount under the gunwales and light the sides of the boat. These units seem ideal for our application because of the clear casing. I will just fill the end of the tubes with clear silicone and then place the supplied cap over it to get a real good seal.

Get a quote from him and make sure to mention my name.

Sorry I missed the thread. Look at my pics and see what you think. I just used 6 footers from Cabela's. Mine go from the bench seat to about the drivers feet along the outside edge of the carpet. You're boat is basically the same length as mine.
