210 Spreader Lights

[Tailwaters]

Looking to install a couple spreader lights on my 210 with a canvas top. Just wondering who else has done this and if you had any issue drilling through the tubing and not chipping out the powder coat? Planning on using a clamshell style mount to make things nice and clean plus adjustable.

Thanks

I would think that it would be just like adding speakers - probably use some blue painters tape over the spot you're going to drill to prevent damage to the powder coat.

Definitely use blue tape and run the bit backwards. Once you’ve removed some material go forward. Use the sam process on gel coat.

Came across these yesterday... pretty much what I’ve been looking for. I like that they are dimmable, and have red light to maintain your night vision. These lights only use two wires, toggle on/off to set light level and again to change colors. They’re available in blue/white as well.

Caprera2 White/Red Dimming - Black

This two color flood light - the Lumitec Caprera2 - has the most up-to-date features, improves beam pattern and increases lumen output. Our waterproof spreader light has 3rd party dimmer compatibility and is great for boats. Check out this and other Lumitec products here.

I did pick these up. Amazon delivered them today. Very heavy duty and should work perfect. I plan on painting them white

Has anyone installed lights on a 210 that they are happy with? I had purchased some nlights and mounting hardware on Amazon, but didn’t end up installing them because of the hassle and uncertainty of performance.

If anyone has a success story installing lights please share!

I installed led spreader 5" to my 242 for my Bimini trip, plain and simple i couldnt see they were so bright that i ended up taking them off, might be good for fishing at night but to go in and out of the south bimini chanel i couldnt see crap

I haven’t installed one, but his setup looks like a good option.

I dont like the idea of that many holes in that location of the rear tower. probably weakened it.
