Everywhere, and of course they are all pretty much made in China so shop the price... Google search "Hull Mounted Docking Lights" e-bay has some good prices too

That's where I got some of it.

Stopped by yesterday to help the old man put his Christmas present on the bass boat - a new fish finder. The bass league we are in starts up in a couple of weeks and we will need to get some practice in first!!! It is an old Bass Cat with a 200 hp outboard Mercury.

We will be playing with my Dad's new boat this weekend on Toledo Bend Reservoir.

It is a 1999 21' Procraft Bass with a modded 225 Merc that should be making about 275 or so. It is a 75 mph+ boat . It has huge casting decks front and back.

I stopped by and purchased a Lowrance Elite 7 Nav/Fishfinder last night for him.

Should be a great toy for his upcoming retirement.

The SE Sport 400 Hydrofoil worked amazingly well, literally cut the plane time in half and for just $80 to top it all off! I am just amazed! Took only about 30 min to install to top it off. I have had the boat out twice and am still amazed at the difference it made. I think I will go ahead and get a 4 blade prop...but no hurry there. About the same hurry as I have with a forward fish finder, considering moving my current one up front and getting one with gps like leftyonly bought his dad for the console. Just what I need, something else to spend money on
