Installed all new LED lights throughout cockpit, cabin, and nav lights so while changing the lights on the stern mast I added a garmin camera to see the stern area, have a couple in the bilge area and love them so figured I’d see how this comes out. I’m happy with the view.

Cool!
Did you replace the bulbs in the mast to LED? If so, what are the bulb type/model #?
What cockpit lights did you replace and with what brand/model?

Thank you, in the cockpit I did the Barnegat courtesy light($68.10 ea) and did it in blue and couldn’t be happier with how it makes the interior look in the evening and the mast lights are Double contact bayonet bulbs($33.96 ea) I don’t have the model number with me but they are worth it for the brightness they produce.

Looking for some help finding dinghy chocks for a Highfield 340, you would think typing that in would help in search engine but it does not, lol.
I have a hydraulic swim platform with the channels for the chocks to insert into them. Thanks in advance

Do you have a link to the lights you used? And did you replace the entire housing or just the bulb? I've been wanting to do the same thing, I'm over the 2200-ish k color temperature of the factory cockpit courtesy lights.

Did anyone change those Barnegt cockpit lights to LED dual color? I haven't found a suitable replacement light yet.

Here is the link I used and ordered with the Blue led. The options are white, blue, red and white/red.

The only dual color I could find was white/red.

Sorry just saw this and see TheWolf already responded.
You won’t be disappointed, the blue looks awesome

Do we need the 12v or 24v version?

24v

Shined her up a little the past couple days.
Inside and bilge cleaned a little but will spend more time detailing just before taking her outside for the summer.
First time indoors in water for the winter and has worked out pretty good.

New addition coming this spring to Double D!!!!

Well I decided on the Highfield 340, ordered the 25 white Suzuki from manufacturer and saved $1700.

Now to just figure out where the dinghy chocks should go in relation to how far away from edge of platform and best tie down situations.

Can’t wait to enjoy it this season

I have all the measurements and angles from my 340 that I can pass along to you. It will just have to wait till I return from Tulum next week.

I appreciate that, thank you

Cool things happen when I leave for a couple weeks!

They are redoing the insert pieces and took one as a sample to match it perfectly.

Out with the old, In with the new….
Changing out the switch panel required a little bit of patience but glad I did it. Flounder pounder offers a package that included the panels and switches required.. Newmar marine has all the switch covers with legends on them. Also had to order the back lighting separately from Flounder.. Overall took me 4 hours to swap it out.

Looks good. That is on my list for next season. I have all the Newmar switch covers already so I will just need the panel and whatever switches required to swap out. I did this on my 460 and yes, it was a PIA. I installed new backlighting this year with a neon light wire, it came out pretty sweet.

Another item off the "Honey-Do" list!
Added an LED light in the storage locker in front of the galley sink.
