There's only one good way to
install navigation lights. My way.


If he is not going to use a trolling motor and the motor is not
electric start, lugging a battery around, just for the light, is
stupid. I have to believe there is an LED solution that will run for
many hours on a small dry cell.


Are there clip-on stern navigation lights with long enough posts to not put
the light in his field of vision? If not, he's gonna need a battery. Even a
small motorcycle battery would do the trick if it's only for lights. But, as
soon as he adds a fish finder, he'll want to go bigger.
