Boat light comments invited

I've protected my night vision for decades with a strong, 3 cell "D" battery MAGLIGHT.

The beam is easily focused, and with an Express/Sundancer style boat, its easily deployed and kept right at the helm.

BEST !

The only time I turn my spotlight on is when locating buoys on the gps then I shine the spot light to make sure it’s there. I would never turn the light on if there were an oncoming boat. And have never had a boat do that to me.

I have, when some douchcanoe boat with full on light bar was coming at me in a slow tight winding river. I had no chance to see anything... hit him full on with my spotlight and he got the hint. I was at idle speed as was he... but really, how clueless can some be with the whole headlight thing.

I don't think it's clueless. Most people aren't that stupid. I think it's simply I'll do as I please because I don't give a hoot about you or anyone else. I'm better than you and You can just go suck seaweed.

I would rather prefer clueless. Those can be educated. The others exemplify what's bad about society today.

He must have gotten his law license from Nigeria and his JD by mailing in ten cereal box tops. Oh boy do those gears turn in his head.

He doesn’t present as an attorney to me for some reason.

I'm with you... rules, law, logic, compassion for others seem MIA.

It's like the asshats driving their bro-dozers and jacked up Jeeps around suburbia with super-bright LED bars on the front. Zero legit reason for this; it's just "IDGAF about anyone else, I feel kewl with my lights".

And what's a bro-dozer, you ask? It's that big pickup truck - often lifted - with the stock wheels replaced with oversized rims and low-profile squared off tires. You know, the ones that never see even a little bit of work. Often paired with rolling coal.

bro-dozer and douchecanoe. This thread has been a boon for my aging vocabulary. You guys are the best.

Some don’t even go that far. They just get a leveling kit but never adjust the headlights. So they blind you, you flash them, and then they fry your cornea.
 
I thinking a geo stabilized mirror mounted on the front of a vehicle or boat so as to reflect the light back at the source effectively demonstrate our concerns?
 
Something tells me what everyone is predicting would happen has already happened and he’s just the lawyer of someone who did this… because this type of stuff isn’t usually done by people who do research or ask for advice lol

Probably not the case. If you have watched past threads they are all off the wall and there has not been a single one that made sense.

I’m new lol I’ve heard several legends of a plywood bow but haven’t quite worked out what that’s about yet. I’m confident it will all fall into place one day.
