Gday Mate,

I mounted a set of lights to the roof of my 530 as you can see in the picture below.

I mounted them to the bolts that hole the black poles thathold the roof in placel that way i did not have to drill any new holes. I then ran the wires in a a conduit across the roof and then run the wires down the centre of the pole and then to a switch on the dash board.

The lights wereable to be easily turned and in whatever direction I wanted. They served as docking and deck lights.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Bob

I mounted mine on Pog atop the rocket launcher. I find it great because I can rotate them practically 360 degree & use them for docking, deck flood lights or spotties in unfamiliar waters. I also made sure I can switch them individually.

PS I realise Pog isn't a Bar Crusher (Quinne Offshore) but if you have something similar by way of launchers then there is another possibility.

GDday Mate,

Unfortunaltey I do not own the boat anymore but when I did they did not cause me any problem,. Im only 178cm (5'10) tall maybe if I was taller they might have.

Also I disconnected the cabin light and used that switch on the panel to work these lights.

Cheers

Bob
